A funny and forthright collection of writings about rugby from one
of the UK's most admired and outspoken commentators. There's
nothing traditional about Brian Moore's style of commentary but
then there's not much that's traditional about the man. Brian Moore
made his name as a take-no-prisoners hooker position at the heart
of the England rugby team's forwards. He was one of the game's
original hard men at a time when rugby was still an amateur sport.
Since his retirement he has earned a reputation as a similarly
unforgiving expert, never afraid to tell it like it is and give an
earful to anyone unlucky enough to meet with his disapproval. In
this controversial, funny, and forthright collection of thoughts
and writings, Brian Moore sets the world to rights in his own
inimitable fashion. Ranging from the problems with today's England
rugby team to the "soap opera" that is the FA, the feeble state of
British tennis, and the threats posed by corruption and
drug-taking, Brian shares his unique insights and not-so-unique
frustrations about the world of rugby and beyond. "The Thoughts of
Chairman Moore" is an engaging and outspoken collection of articles
from one of our most admired commentators.
