Paul Parker's England manager, Sir Bobby Robson, once described him
as a player who "leaps like a salmon and tackles like a ferret".
Paul's positional sense saw him snuff out the threat of the world's
top strikers as he wrote his name into football's history books
with his dazzling displays in the Italia 90 World Cup. The night
England lost the semi-final to Germany on penalties saw Paul
intrinsically involved in both goals, in a game which has gone down
in football history. At the time he was captain and one of the most
high-profile players of a buoyant QPR team. He later won a host of
medals with Manchester United as Sir Alex Ferguson built a dynasty
on the defence, marshalled by Paul. In his autobiography, Paul
relives the years of struggle against racism which brought him to
the top level of English football, reveals how he saved Fulham
Football Club from extinction, why he left QPR and refused to sign
for Arsenal and Spurs and how he struggled to cope with the
debilitating injury which cost him his career. Never one to shirk
an opinion, Paul reveals his thoughts on everything from bungs to
racism, from the proliferation of England caps in the modern era to
having a winning mentality. He also tells bundles of stories about
the many personalities within the game with whom he has worked
including Sir Alex Ferguson, Sir Bobby Robson, David Beckham, Roy
Keane, Eric Cantona, Paul Gascoigne, Bobby Gould, Trevor Francis
and Malcolm MacDonald. With a foreword by Sir Alex Ferguson, "Paul
Parker: Tackles Like a Ferret" will entrance fans of all three
clubs, plus a much wider audience who still hark back to that night
in Turin when England so nearly reached the World Cup Final.
