Product Description

Review
"A book so refreshing you are often tempted to break into applause" (Sunday Telegraph) "A refreshing slice of biographical honesty and integrity" (Times) "Every now and again a football biography comes along that sidesteps the usual garbage with a neat shimmy ! Wonderfully refreshing -- it allows you a peek of that rare beast, a footballer's personality (in fact two of them) not just the cliched shell that encases it." 4 stars. (Four Four Two)

Sunday Telegraph
'Fascinating, deliciously funny, truly exceptional...so refreshing you are often tempted to break into applause.' --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very original and entertaining red, absolutely superb, 29 Jul 2004
Being a Northampton Town fan, Woody's 'beloved' club, I was always going to enjoy this book. Disappointingly at first, I soon realised that this was not a book about football, and certainly not a book about Northampton. This is a book about life and friendship, written with football as the backdrop rather than the primary focus.
That said, some of the football tales both players have are very entertaining, and the very different personalities of both players really come out in this book.

Well written in a very original style and format, I found this book to be a fantastic read and totally absorbing. One of the very best (of many) football books I have read. Superb.

4.0 out of 5 stars A tale of two different worlds, 26 Oct 2003
By G. Wilson "oufc_gav1986" (Oxford, UK.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An entertaining and interesting tale of two very different sides of football, entwined by the close bond between the two.
An insightful, very honest and well written book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Completely absorbing., 31 Dec 2003
A very different way to write a book....the tale of two careers
that began together and moved so far apart, yet still a great mate relationship survives, thru ups and downs, girlfriends and marriages, and the massive gap in financial rewards for their abilities.True friends, and true mates, a rare thing in todays society.
