The autobiography of Nottingham Forest's legendary and twice European Cup-winning former captain, John McGovern. In the book McGovern talks in detail about playing under the great Brian Clough during the glory days at Forest and Derby and the true story of what happened at Leeds for whom he was signed by Clough during his controversial 44-day reign infamously brought to life in The Damned United. McGovern also talks about his battle to make it in football despite a disability caused by a missing muscle in his back in this riveting and inspirational read.
John McGovern won three League Championships, two European Cups and two League Cups in a glittering career with Hartlepool, Derby, Leeds, Nottingham Forest and Bolton Wanderers. He was also manager of Bolton, Rotherham and Woking. He now works for BBC Radio Nottingham as a co-commentator on Nottingham Forest matches.
