The entertaining life story of one of the last remaining characters from the 'old school' of football club management. Now fully revised to include Harry's rancorous departure from his beloved West Ham, and his new and challenging role as boss of newly promoted Portsmouth.
Harry was also instrumental in the development at the Hammers' youth academy of talent such as Joe Cole, Michael Carrick and Rio Ferdinand, with the latter's recent ban from the game for missing a drugs test eliciting some strong opinions from his ex-manager. At Portsmouth, Harry has yet again proved a shrewd operator in the transfer market, leading the club to promotion to the Premiership in 2003 on a shoestring budget, and recruiting the likes of Teddy Sheringham, Patrik Berger and Tim Sherwood to help Pompey compete against the rich elite. Away from football, Harry recalls his narrow escape from a near-fatal car accident in 1990 and the unique relationship with son, Jamie, the former England and current Spurs midfielder who is married to pop star Louise. With Harry's no-holds-barred views on the transfer market, and the betting and gambling that is rife in the game, this book is sure to be an eye-opener to the world of English football.
