just read 'the damned united' by david peace, about Brian Clough. its told in this mental autobiographical style, going backwards and forwards in time between him as manager at derby and then leeds - takes a few pages to get used to, but it really works well. well worth a look

Not a football book, but I read the autobiography of Alex James (the bass player from Blur)
Well worth a read, especially if you are a Blur fan

I've had a flick through and it looks superb. It's the sort of book I will probably read all the way through in one go. Just right for a flight to the States in fact  |
