Jacko Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 all footballers should be banned from 'writing' books, till they are long retired. Dunno why anyone wastes their time reading 'em, or their money, just to line rich players pockets to be honest. Its very cleverly marketed, Steven Gerrard has obviously had nothing to do with it but its made out he wrote it.
Benitez Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 Its very cleverly marketed, Steven Gerrard has obviously had nothing to do with it but its made out he wrote it. if it's made out he wrote it, I presume he had something to do with it? Or is it an unauthorized biography? Either way, waste of time and effort all of 'em!
Elisha_Scott Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 if it's made out he wrote it, I presume he had something to do with it? Or is it an unauthorized biography? Either way, waste of time and effort all of 'em! Who wrote it? If its Henry Winter, then, yes, its the proper one. If not, its nothing to do with him.
Jacko Posted April 5, 2006 Author Posted April 5, 2006 Its no way authorised, but doesn't say unothorised the title is portrait of a hero- I feel mugged

Jacko Posted April 5, 2006 Author Posted April 5, 2006 Adam Cottier - hid first book. I would presume you would know bout it Elisha if it was real
Elisha_Scott Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 Adam Cottier - hid first book. I would presume you would know bout it Elisha if it was real Its harsh mate, there are loads of s**** around. He is wrinting one though with Henry Winter, which will be out in the summer. I'd wait for that if I was you.
Gomez Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 Adam Cottier - hid first book. I would presume you would know bout it Elisha if it was real Do you get all your grammar from footballing biographies?
bigdave50uk Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 There was a bit in the echo on saturday about it. Apparentley according to bascombe its full of refrences to the s*n. The fella whos wrote it dont know his name seems like a right c***, he's used general quotes given to the media by gerrard and passed them off as s*n exclusives. I would wait till september when his official one comes out.
smokescreen Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 I think given this ethical approach to unauthorised books, even I could make a mint out of footballers by penning my own... Hmmmm... how about for my first one... Joe Cole - I'm Still Standing
Case Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 Carlton Cole - I'll be your substitute Ashley Cole - Hangin' on the Telephone
Mevster Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 im halfway through reading it / halfway through being mugged. it is pretty lame. as everyone says, a bland chronological story of stevies career and there are loads of s*n quotes in there which i find quite staggering. good news about the winter book though elisha, i'll definitely be getting that one. liverpool book ive enjoyed most recently is "a season on the brink", some really good inside sources from players and staff. read it in a day, really disappointed when i finished it
Will Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 It certainly doesn't claim to be anything to do with SteG - it is quite patently an unauthorised biography. One shocking picture of SteG celebrating with Ged the Levski goal (?), saying that his was his first goal under Ged....! As I got it half price off amazon, I am not that fussed how good a book it is...

Happy days!

smokescreen Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 Are you in it? 'Calvey' is on every page of Robbie's! Elisha is only on the page about when he played football drunk, in his pool, with a beachball, and couldnt kick the ball to the other side
berdoing Posted April 5, 2006 Posted April 5, 2006 22 years old?! How on earth did that get commissioned!!
