Description
The Odd Man Out: The Fascinating Story of Ron Saunders' Reign at Aston Villa Ron Saunders' tenure at Aston Villa was marked by turmoil and triumph. Against a backdrop of internal strife and player disharmony, he guided the team to a first league title in 71 years, a feat that remains their last to date. This remarkable story is one of perseverance and determination, as Saunders navigated the complexities of the boardroom and the pitch to achieve greatness. Despite the success of his first season, Saunders' decision to leave Aston Villa and join arch-rivals Birmingham City was a shocking one. The timing was particularly poignant, as Villa were on the brink of European Cup glory. This book tells the story of Saunders' remarkable journey, from his early days as a player to his time in the Villa hotseat, and the events that led to his infamous departure. Through exclusive access to those who knew him, Graham Denton brings Saunders' story to life, offering a unique and fascinating insight into the mind of a football manager who defied the odds to achieve success.
