Product Description
Product Description
Countless words have been written following Nicholson's death in 2004, but this book is unique in that the words come from one of his own players, Alan Mullery, himself a Tottenham legend, who was signed by Nicholson in the 1960s and preceded to skipper highly successful Spurs side. Mullery will unveil little-known anecdotes; reveal what went on behind the scenes whilst working alongside Nicholson; and relay stories from the many Tottenham heroes, who played with and under Nicholson over the years. The book features illustrations by writer, artist and Tottenham historian Paul Trevillion, who has worked closely with Tottenham over the past 50 years - from the days when Nicholson was a player in the famous Arthur Rowe 'push and run' side of the '50s, through the club's unbeatable Double-winning era of the '60s and onwards through the decades to the present day. Along the way, his illustrations have captured the spirit of the times at the club and have featured in numerous papers and periodicals. In "Bill Nicholson", Trevillion will illustrate in striking colour the skills and tactics, which made Nicholson's teams winners of trophies and purveyors of beautiful football, the like of which has arguably not been seen since. Not only will this book be a rich tribute to Nicholson, but it will also be a permanent reminder of, how one man made football a true thing of beauty.
From the Publisher
Only a handful of football managers will be remembered forever - Chapman, Busby, Ramsey, Stein, Shankly, Revie, Clough and Ferguson. Tottenham's Bill Nicholson can be added to that list of legends and justifiably become part of the history of the game.
