About this listen

Football fans will love this insight into the life and mind of Big Sam. With nearly 20 years as a player - plus almost 25 years as a coach and manager - under his belt, Sam Allardyce is one of the most recognisable figures in British football.

'Big Sam' has been a robust defensive general throughout the seventies and eighties, and an imposing touchline presence as a gaffer since 1994.

Over the last four decades, Allardyce has seen it all. The game he so loves is radically different to that in which he made his debut back in 1973, and in telling his wonderfully colourful story for the very first time, Allardyce talks intriguingly about the changing face of players and managers. His autobiography positively crackles with characteristic insight, honesty and hard-hitting opinions.

A fantastic listen I couldn't stop and I have a new found respect of a true innovator in the Premier League, so entertaining and really a rewarding listening/read, the insite into football and Premier League management is intoxicating at times it feels like his you and him are at the pub together having a pint and his just telling you how it was. I brought the book because it's incredible. truly one of the best I've read my only note is it needs an update because so much has happened since in his career since the books release he finally got that England job and because of what happened next I need to know his views on what happened.

Big Sam is one of the greatest.
