I Get Knocked Down is the revealing autobiography of one of the
most respected men in English football. After he was released by
Sunderland as a boy, Danny Wilson began his career playing
non-league football for his hometown club Wigan Athletic, before
working his way through the divisions to the Premier League,
winning major honours along the way. A popular character wherever
he went, Danny's journey is littered with hilarious stories of some
of the game's biggest names, including Brian Clough, Ron Atkinson,
Viv Anderson, Chris Woods, Jimmy Case, Mick Harford, and Steve
Foster. After a successful playing career with Bury, Chesterfield,
Nottingham Forest, Scunthorpe, Brighton, Luton, and Sheffield
Wednesday, Danny joined Barnsley as player- coach before eventually
managing the club, taking them to the Premier League for the first
time in their history. During a twenty-five-year managerial career,
Danny's teams have won trophies, promotions, and celebrated
last-gasp relegation escapes. Danny managed over a thousand games
for Barnsley, Sheffield Wednesday, Bristol City, MK Dons,
Hartlepool United, Swindon Town, Sheffield United, and
Chesterfield. Danny speaks candidly about his time in management,
including: working with Paolo Di Canio; being attacked in the media
by four MPs; managing MK Dons during their inaugural season;
helping to turn a young Harry Maguire from a midfielder to a
defender; and his controversial decision to manage both Sheffield
clubs - Wednesday and United. I Get Knocked Down is a truly
fascinating insight into the life of a true football man.
