"Ooh Aah Stantona"
I wanted a footy book to take on my hols next week the only trouble is I've had it two days and finished it already! Great book, didn't know much about Phil Stant as a player although the name rang a few bells. He served in the Falklands and then came back and spent 15 years in the lower leagues scoring goals wherever he went.
It makes such a change from all the current "autobiographies" that are out their (Wayne Rooney - ?5m to write some books - you are f**king joking) in that Stant wrote it himself and that he seems a decent bloke with no chip on his shoulder or point to prove.
Anyone looking for a footy book, I'd highly recommend it! Also recommend The Miracle of Castel Di Sangro and A Season with Verona just in case anyone hasn't read them.
Now can someone please recommend a footy book that I can take on holiday with me!
