Description
David Fairclough's autobiography offers a refreshingly candid look at his colourful career. As one of Liverpool's most famous goalscorers and the original 'Supersub', he shares the highs and lows of his time in the spotlight. Fairclough recalls his meteoric rise to stardom, the priceless contribution he made to the team's success under Bob Paisley, and the key role he played against St Etienne on arguably Anfield's greatest night. This is a gripping insight into one of the greatest teams in football history, populated by great players whom Fairclough played with and against. In an evocative collaboration with journalist Mark Platt, Fairclough lifts the lid on what life was really like for him in the dressing room, his often fraught relationship with Paisley, and the psychological burden of being cast as 'the outsider looking in'.
