This is a unique insight into a trade where managers require ruthlessness and empathy, idealism and cunning.Never before have the secrets and myths of football management been so laid bare. This is a book about football managers,live and uncut.The average lifespan of a manager in the Championship is eight months.New records for volatility are set every season. What makes these men tick? They are familiar figures,who rarely offer anything more than a glimpse into their personal and professional lives.Who are they? What shapes them? How and why do they do their job?
