The funniest and most entertaining sports book you'll read this
year. 'fascinating, frank, funny' Jim White, Daily Telegraph
'insightful' Henry Winter, The Times 'engaging ... revealing ... a
warm and often funny read' FourFourTwo 'very entertaining ... great
stories' Hawksbee & Jacobs, talkSPORT radio 'an incredible
book' The Football Show, Sky Sports News 'a kaleidoscope of
anecdotes and detours packed with wisdom acquired on the hoof' The
i newspaper 'Yeah, I'm all that plus a bag of chips' 'Come round my
house and we'll have a fight on the front lawn' 'I'm as chuffed as
a badger at the start of the mating season' 'I thought his bum
cheeks looked very pert' Football management is like being a potato
- you're never too far from the sack and everyone is constantly
chipping away at you. It's not for the faint-hearted and unless
you've got skin as thick as rhino and, more importantly, a wicked
sense of humour, you've no chance of surviving. Ian Holloway - aka
'Ollie' - has all the above and more besides. His press conferences
are the stuff of legend. He's been there, seen it and done it in
his 40 years as player and manager, and has been entertaining
football fans on and off the pitch for most of his life. He's been
head honcho at clubs in all four divisions in English football,
experiencing everything from the giddy heights of taking Blackpool
to the Premier League to fighting relegation from the Football
League with Grimsby Town. There's never been a dull moment. In the
joyful How to Be a Football Manager, Holloway weaves a
fantastically rich tapestry of hilarious anecdotes to reveal what
being the boss is really like. This is not a handbook to tell you
when to play a Christmas tree formation or throw on a false nine -
it's about dealing with the ridiculous, fighting your corner and
always having a comeback.
