Just finished Ally Robertson's book, which wasn't very interesting in all honesty and basically centred on his habitual drink driving.
Anyone got any other football related books that they found to be good reading?

Hello Blood. Alex Ferguson's autobiography was a decent read from memory. The original one that is but I believe it's been updated. Expanding the topic Football Factory was more entertaining than the film. From a supporter perspective I can recommend the 'Brummie Road' (I think) which follows the lives of a group of Albion supporters from the sixties through to our first promotion to the Prem' under Sir Gary. Good read.

I seem to remember John Giles autobiography was a decent read. Quite old now though I guess.
Hi BB I have a copy of Peter Crouch - I, Robot and Chris sutton - You're better than that. Amazon will have a description of these titles. If you are interested in either simply PM me and I will send you a copy - Free of course
Bill Shankly was a good one, found myself reading it in his accent.
Willie Johnston’s was fun.
Roy Keane’s was the best.
Am reading Arsene Wenger's currently. Wouldn't recommend so far.
