Grant Bage: The Unseen Sir Alf, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

• Changes everything we thought we knew about English football's only World Cup-winning manager Sir Alf Ramsey
• Each chapter uses fresh historical evidence to rethink Alf's story for new generations
• Alf's life issues have ties to the stories of modern football figures such as Gareth Southgate, Gary Lineker and Hope Powell and are relatable to football fans of all ages
• Ramsey faced and overcame many barriers: a racist nickname, prejudice against 'gypsies', poverty, snobbery, war, being a banned Sunday footballer, not playing professionally until 26, and probable neurodiversity
• The nature of Alf's triumph over adversity makes this a very modern English story
• Publicity campaign planned including radio, newspapers, websites, podcasts and magazines
