1.0 out of 5 stars Completely Pointless, 28 Jan 1999
By A Customer
Great I suppose if you are on holidays and want something effortless to read on the beach, but otherwise don't bother.If you are after a good read and characters that involve you in the story, this is not the book for you. (unless you have a obsession with football).

3.0 out of 5 stars Understandable, 28 Nov 2007
By Mr. Terence Jones "terencej72" (Glasgow, Scotland, U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I read this book a few years ago. To understand the book you need to understand the author Karren Brady - Managing Director of Birmingham City FC and when appointed at 23 became the youngest Chief Executive in the U.K. She's still in charge of Birmingham but is also on the board at Mothercare and Channel 4.

Consider her plight - she's married a footballer a moderately successfull one (Championship level) called Paul Peschisolido and being attractive would naturally have been assumed to be the "Trophy Wife" of her husband to the people who didn't know her. How frustrating it must have been to actually have that role reversed (i think there's a very good chance she earnt more than him) yet still suffer the stereotypes especially amoung footballers who (and let's be honest here) 90% of them are not going to be the sharpest tool in the shed.

The book itself isn't great but i suspect it served it's purpose for her wehich was to put down in print exactly what she thought of the people who would lump her in with the WAGS.

1.0 out of 5 stars If you hate men ( especialy footballers ) you WILL love this, 25 Mar 1999
By A Customer
I read this book because I was ill and could not leave the house , and oh , how I suffered .

This book tells basically lays out for us , that all men are b*****ds , and that if a few sisters would just band together and unite , that women could rule the world .

Right on ! ( eh NO! )

Pure drivel ....
