About this product

Product Information

Jimmy Adamson was a football enigma, revered by some, disliked by others - a supremely elegant player of the '50s and early '60s, a title winner and a respected coach, but a manager whose spirit was ultimately shattered. In 1962, Adamson had the world at his feet: FA Cup finalist, Footballer of the Year and invited to become England manager, having been assistant at the World Cup in Chile. But Adamson said 'no'. In 1970 he predicted that Burnley would become the 'Team of the Seventies', but despotic chairman Bob Lord's selling policy saw the vision fade and die. Controversially sacked in 1976, Adamson moved to Sunderland and then endured two torrid years at Leeds United before turning his back on the game. This is a poignant story of broken dreams, failed ambitions and personal tragedy, ending in estrangement from the club he loved. A story of what might have been.

    Excellent seller, really fast despatch, well packaged, cannot fault them , this seller is trustworthy and consiencious. Unlike 'World of Books' , who don't reply to your messages , who use unreliable unknown and untracked delivery, marking packages as despatched , the moment you buy them and claiming they can't cancel the order . DON'T use 'World of Books', buy from this seller, you won't be disappointed or infuriated . Thank you for being a straight trustworthy seller.

    Book arrived well packed in a sturdy cardboard package to prevent damage in transit and is exactly as described in the listing. Although eBay gave the item an unrealistic estimated delivery date (they do this to a lot of eBay sellers), the book arrived within an acceptable timeframe considering that the post always tends to get extremely busy in the weeks leading up to Christmas. I would have no hesitation in recommending this seller to other potential buyers.
