For me there's nothing better than a good book.
Thankfully football literature has significantly improved from the bland shoot and match annuals, which seemed to be the only ones available before the pre- sky tv boom. (Don't get me started on the hooligan stories)
Of course these days, just about any ex-pro who kicked a ball in the direction of an opposition goal or demanded a transfer, uses 'his side of the story' to supplement his pension fund.
As a result many publications are tedious affairs, and certainly not worthy of the time and money spent on them.
NSC users, please place your recommendations here. And give a brief description of why you believe the book is worth the investment.
I'll start things rolling with ' every boys dream' by Chris Green.
It details the more often than not story of elite youth football in this country, and documents the frequent poor practice applied by many so called professional English football clubs.
Your turn please
