More about the book

David Armstrong's journey through professional soccer is marked by both triumph and adversity. Beginning at Leeds, he turned down offers from prominent clubs before achieving a remarkable 356 consecutive matches with Middlesbrough. His time at Southampton alongside stars like Keegan and Ball saw near successes, but his England career was cut short due to a conflict with Bobby Robson. The narrative delves into his personal struggles, including financial hardship, a difficult divorce, and health issues, creating a compelling tale that resonates beyond the sport.
