Football - Bloody Hell! by Patrick Barclay
Sir Alex Ferguson is without doubt the most controversial and compelling figure in football today. For many he ranks as the greatest manager of all time. He is certainly the most successful. This title reveals Ferguson to be a relentless character whose ability to intimidate, control, cajole and encourage has driven his unparalleled success.
Barclay has written a wonderful book Football -- Bloody Hell! captures the contradictions and battery-acid sourness of this complex personality just as eloquently as it elucidates his genius. * Irish Independent *
Firm but fair. A book in which thoroughness of research, richness of detail and proper celebration of achievement are never allowed to occlude the author's unsentimental view of his compatriot. -- Richard Williams * Guardian *
Book of the Week * Guardian *
