The mini-biographies of 100 stars of 1970s football, including not just what they were then but what they are now. Contrary to popular belief, not every footballer retires to run a pub. At least one former player in this collection now trains racehorses, another arranges celebrity golf breaks, another imports women's shoes and another has been selling nuts and bolts for the same company for 20 years. Dean Hayes combines statistics, pictures and text on each player with interesting facts, and picks his fantasy '70s XI. Among the featured players are: Liam Brady, Trevor Brooking, Mick Channon, Steve Coppell, Trevor Francis, Emlyn Hughes, Frank Lampard, Paul Mariner, John Toshack and Ray Wilkins.
Dean Hayes is an experienced freelance sports writer specialising in football and cricket. He has written over 60 books including Bolton Wanderers, Gloucestershire CCC and England Cricket Legends for Sutton Publishing. He has a wide network of contacts in sport, has appeared on Sky TV and is a mine of secret history, folklore and fact. He lives in Pembrokeshire.
