Was just reading it myself, and about to post. Always liked Oatway as a player, and rate him even more as a person now.
I am sure there was a recent Harty interview as well covering a lot of this ground as well

Read his book years ago, felt enormous pride in him as an Albion fan. Could play a bit too…

Hmm, quite a bit of airbrushing of history by Charlie here since he first went public about his literacy issues (in The Times) in 2004. He omits to mention that when he "sought [Alan] Sanders' advice", it was when Sanders was working for Albion In The Community and that he first began to learn to read in the community programme of the club he was captaining - in the Withdean portakabins. But then I suppose both he and Alan feel rather bitter about the way the club treated them so wouldn't want to mention the Albion.

Am aware of the Oatway issue (apparently he has said he'll never go to The Amex again despite still living in the city) but what happened with Alan Sanders?
