Stan the Man: A Hard Life in Football

By Stan Ternant and Tony Livesey

This is the extraordinary life story of Stan Ternent, one of the most outrageous managers in professional soccer. Celebrated for achieving a series of promotions on shoestring budgets, he has coached some of soccer's biggest names, including Ian Wright, Vinnie Jones, Dennis Wise, and Gazza. Stan's outspoken attitude and uncompromising behavior have been legendary within soccer circles for years, and so have his punch-ups. Now for the first time, the Burnley manager—called "one of the greatest characters in the game" by the Scot who manages Man United—reveals his amazing exploits from four decades as a soccer icon.
