From an awestruck youngster in 1950s Birmingham watching the supermen of Honved, via a stalwart career as a lower league professional with Oxford to managing one of the biggest club in world football, Ron Atkinson's has been a life less ordinary. With detailed portraits of the men he worked with and against, including Bryan Robson, Paul McGrath, Sir Alex Ferguson and Dwight Yorke, Atkinson also discusses the rise of the foreign footballer, the decline of the English manager and what it is like to sing live at Ronnie Scott's.
