Ron Saunders is the one manager in over a century to guide Aston
Villa to English football's summit. The Odd Man Out is an
exhaustive account of how he did so. How he took the Midlanders to
promotion from the old Division Two in his first season. How he
created and dismantled arguably the most exciting Villa side of
modern times - one that inflicted Liverpool's heaviest defeat of
the entire 1970s. How he achieved two League Cup triumphs in three
years, including a three-game final with Everton that will remain
the longest in history. How he battled with 'Deadly' Doug Ellis -
and won! Then, how he fell out with and ultimately sold fans'
favourite Andy Gray and replaced him with a journeyman striker in
Peter Withe, before steering the club to its first league title in
71 years. It also explores the mystery of his sudden resignation
with Villa on the brink of European Cup glory, joining their
bitterest rivals only nine days later. Saunders's tough-guy
reputation has overshadowed his achievements. The Odd Man Out casts
a whole lot more light upon them.
