I was fortunate to meet Gooch at Old Trafford a few years ago,and a nicer more humble lad you couldn't wish to meet.

I have read probably at least a hundred sports biographies,and have never once read the word f..k in any of them,until this one.

While I'm not naive to think the lad never swears,I think it is wholly unnecessary in print,and reflects poorly on other wide fascinating narratives

Roy Keanes had an odd one in it.

I've read dozen of sports autobiographies, and theyve all had their fair share of F words.

When you say autobiographies you mean the drivel ghost written by the local reformed alcoholic has been journalist

The Pursuit of Perfection by Cormac's brother, Dónal Mc Anallen, had me in bits -- a very well written, though extremely harrowing, and brutally honest, account of our erstwhile captain.

I bought her dad this book for his birthday, he cried reading the back!!! Hasn't stopped thanking me for it since, says its a great read

Obviously big Sean Cavanagh has one out. I have it on the list so more than likely will get it over Christmas.
