You Don't Know Me, But . . . by Clarke Carlisle

You Don't Know Me, But . . . by Clarke Carlisle

In the summer of 2012, Clarke Carlisle, after 15 years as a professional footballer, was without a contract and wondering if he still had a future in the game. With a growing media profile, thanks to his appearances on Question Timeand an acclaimed documentary on racism in football, there were plenty of other opportunities, but he was determined to give it another go. Initially signing for York City before moving to Northampton Town, Carlisle was soon back in the thick of the action, with a date at Wembley awaiting him at the end of the season. As the events of the year unfolded, Carlisle looked back at his career, from his early days playing for England Under-21s, through career-threatening injuries and a battle with alcohol problems, to a late arrival in the Premier League with Burnley. As chairman of the PFA, Carlisle is a much-respected figure in the game; his raw honesty and penetrating insights will make readers view the game, and those who play it, in a whole new light.

Clarke Carlisle made his football debut for Blackpool in 1997 and has since played at all levels of the Football League, including a season in the Premier League for Burnley. He is currently chairman of the PFA and in that role has appeared on BBC's current affairs show 'Question Time'. He retired in 2013 and is now a commentator for ITV.
