DESCRIPTION:
"Must Have for Man Utd fans" according to Morten Nielsen. Granted, this is probably a biased review since I am an avid Man Utd fan myself but this book is a great collection of stories from some of the players that were part of the fantastic 90's at United. The people included in this book include Andy Cole, Lee Sharpe, Eric Cantona, David May, Nicky Butt, Jesper Blomqvist, Paul Parker, Lee Martin, Jordi Cruyff, Gary Pallister and M. "Fantastic Read!" according to A Customer. Loved hearing the players stories & Andy Mitten has a way with words, getting them to share & welcome you into their football world. Glory, Glory Man United!!

Glory Glory is an astonishingly candid and revealing insight into a club that was enjoying a magnificent decade of success. Not just the great wins, the cup finals and the trophy parades, but the half-time rows, the mad pranks, the boozy nights out and the training ground bust-ups. Andy Mitten has tracked down ten of the stars from that team - including Eric Cantona, Andrew Cole, Lee Sharpe and Nicky Butt as well as controversial chairman Martin Edwards - to open the door to both the dressing room and the boardroom at Old Trafford as the club emerged as the dominant force in English football. More than that, it is as lively and entertaining a sports book as you will ever read. Why did Eric Cantona start wearing his collar up? Which player got so drunk after a title-winning party he wet himself in a taxi? Why did Andrew Cole and Teddy Sheringham fall out? And which international star burnt his wedding tackle on a scalding hot tea urn? Glory Glory is the story of one of the greatest eras in the history of England's most famous club through the eye
