Not sure if this is in the right place but oh well, I am going on holiday in just under 3 weeks and would like to get a book to take with me to read around the pool and beach. Just wondered if anyone would reccommend a good sporting autobiography? Preferably a football one? Any ideas?
 
Just read a few reviews of that book and everyone has talked highly about it. Cheers for that mate.
 
Psycho: The Autobiograpy

Inverting the pyramid is the footballing book to read imo
 
Hattons autobiography is really good, thats worth a read.
 
Bobby Rosbon's Farewell But Not Goodbye is a must read. Really fascinating, and no sensationalism from the man-as you'd expect. Riveting read.
 
Marcus Threscothick's (sp) is V.Good but don't know if you're thinking of cricket

EDIT: Stan Bowles: The autobiography is awesome too :D

I haven't read it myself but I've seen the film but books are usually better so "The Damned United" would probably be quite good. :)

EDIT: That's not an autobiography, is it? Sorry. :(
 
I can't lie..

Steven Gerrard's Autobiography is very good. So is Rio Ferdinand's and Roy Keane's.
 
Dan Brown - The Lost Symbol
Stieg Larsson - The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
 
I agree with Mike. If you want a football book, it has to be Inverting the Pyramid.
 
Behind the Curtain: Travels in Football in Eastern Europe - Jonathan Wilson.
 
Cheers for all these ideas il give them a look later and decide which ones I am going to get.
 
Football: Soccernnomics (not an autobiography though)

In general: pretty much anything by Milan Kundera
