Description
Straight-shooting Derek Dougan, one of the greatest soccer stars ever, tells the story of his see-saw fame from the backstreets of Belfast, to the shipyards, to the football fields of Portsmouth, Blackburn, Aston Villa, Peterborough, Leicester and Wolverhampton. 'Doog' writes frankly about the early days of poverty and bigotry in Ulster, his chance to escape through soccer, and then about the clubs he played for, discussing their management, training, finances, and his story is coloured with behind-the-scenes anecdotes about his fellow players. Through his own words Dougan the rebel, the Ulsterman, the football star - and the man - emerge larger than life...a champion for all seasons. Illustrated and with an introduction by Percy Young.
