For years it has been the book the entire sporting world has wanted to read, but only now has Ron Manager decided the time is right to publish, because only now has he found a publisher with big enough brown envelopes. In MARVELLOUS, ISN'T IT, Ron lays down the law as only he can: what sort of sheepskin coats should a manager wear Phrases you should never be caught using, and how he saved Fergie's career and later persuaded the Queen to knight him. Manager's role in modern football is quite unique, only now can his real influence be revealed. After reading this book you will never look at football in the same way again.
This is a very funny book... Marvellous Not quite, but a damned good belly laugh - Sunday Times
Ron Manager was born in a terraced house, and as a child life was tough. But kicking a rolled up newspaper around the back streets gave him a dream. As a player, he won six England caps, but as a manager Ron came into his own. He has managed 14 clubs in his long career, sometimes leaving of his own accord. He won the 'Pundit's Pundit' award three times.
