Description

Vince Hilaire's autobiography offers a fascinating insight into the world of football in the 1980s. With a career spanning over 600 games, Vince shares his experiences playing for Crystal Palace, Portsmouth, Leeds United and Stoke City, as well as representing England at Youth and Under 21 levels. The book provides a unique perspective on the methods of some of the biggest figures in British football, including managers Malcolm Allison, Terry Venables, Alan Ball and Howard Wilkinson. Vince also opens up about the challenges he faced as one of the first black players to break into the professional game, including the regular abuse he suffered and the dread he felt playing at certain grounds. This autobiography is a massively entertaining read that gives a fascinating insight into the beautiful game as it used to be played.
