Product Description

Review

In awarding four stars out of five, 'Four Four Two' magazine said: 'An engaging read ... an antidote to the 'me-me-me' tales that weigh down the shelves'.'The Son' newspaper said: 'Primus has a multi-dimensional story of footie and faith to tell ... don't miss this terrific read and marvel at this great man of faith's wonderful story'The Church of England Newspaper said: 'An inspiring read ... there is an openness and vulnerability exposed in the book which is often eschewed in sporting biiographies which is refreshing


Product Description

A man transformed. A football club transformed. When Linvoy Primus moved to struggling Portsmouth, he had been playing out his career in the lower leagues with his footballing and personal life unfulfilled as he struggled with a crippling lack of self belief that had been fuelled by rejection, mistrust and disillusionment. When the Primus family was invited to a local church Linvoy's fortunes were to be changed in a remarkable way when he decided to commit to Christianity.This book tells the story of how he believes his faith in God transformed his life and performances such that he played a key role in Portsmouth's triumphant ascent to the top level of the English game and went on to become a top Premiership footballer, scooping a host of awards from the fans. At a time when the quintessential footballer is feted with money and fame and portrayed as arrogant, dishonest and pampered Linvoy's story provides the perfect antidote. This is a the compelling story of Linvoy's own remarkable conversion and life as a Christian in the Premiership, together with the inside story of Portsmouth's parallel transformation to become one of the top ten teams in the country.

5.0 out of 5 stars Want to know the meaning of life?, 12 Sep 2007
By D. A. Longstaff "Deb" (Hampshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is not just for football fans but a highly readable account of one man's life. Not being remotely interested in football myself I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and interesting this was to read and lends a fascinating insight into a game that half the country seems obsessed about (I still haven't worked out why!). It shows that football is not all about money and celebrity, but these are real people working in an often cut-throat environment. The book also charts Mr Primus' conversion into Christianity and dispels some of the myths around this often misunderstood faith. The book clearly describes the transformation of a boy often suffering from crippling self-confidence to the peaceful, happy, faith-filled man he is today. I can also reiterate what many a TV pundit has said - that Mr Primus is not only an excellent role model but one of the nicest people you could hope to meet (I have been privileged enough to do so). I highly recommend this thoroughly enjoyable and readable book.
