I quite enjoyed Alex Fergusons, which surprised me.

City related ones:
Dave Jones
Ridsdale
Bellamy
an in that order.

Also if you haven't read it, Andy Leggs quick read, its only cheap and you will read it in a few hours but so interesting (well I thought so)

Just read Guy Martin's autobiography - if you're into bikes and bike racing (particularly road as opposed to track racing) then I'd recommend it.

Shaking hands with the devil.

Not an autobiography but a very personal book and well worth the read. Came across it from reading an article about Malky, who apparently had this sitting on a shelf in his office.

Running with the Firm by James Bannon, True story of a police officer who went undercover following Millwall hooligans.
The best football book I have read and come across to date :thumbup:

I've just started reading a book about Mossad. Pretty good.

I have Arnold Schwarzenegger's auto still to read too.

Totally agree lee. I've read about three books in my life. Just back off holiday and read this in three days. Great read. I also took Harry redknapps autobiography it takes a while to get going but is a decent read.
He mentions his worst ever singing in it and it was Kenwyne Jones. Says he's the laziest and most unfit player he's ever worked with and the 55 year old physio beats him on the fitness tests.
