'I know who you are: you're the Boss.' The words of His Holiness Pope John Paul II, on meeting Jack Charlton and his Republic of Ireland team before the 1990 World Cup Finals. Indeed Jack Charlton was the Boss - a man whose strength of character drove him to achievements beyond the scope of his own natural talents or those of the teams who played under him. His book tells of his childhood in a Northumberland mining village and how he escaped a life down the mine by joining Leeds United, where he played for twenty years. As a footballer, he touched the pinnacle in England's legendary 1966 World Cup winning team. As a manager, he dragged the Republic of Ireland from the backwaters of international football to compete with the world's best. As a man, he was noted for his forthright personality - one whose views were as honest as they were respected. This is his story, the life of a man who specialised in the improbable, told in his own words.

This book is a true story of how a boy, from a small mining village in Wales and a cricket fanatic, ended up as doctor to the England World Cup Football Team and on the balcony, when England won the World Cup in 1966. It begins with his life in Tredegar and details the defining moments and experiences that led to his qualification as a doctor, despite having no proper qualifications to enter university. It charts his pssion for cricket and his excitement at playing with Glamorgan in his youth and his move from being a passionate cricketer to a director at MIddlesbrough Football Club. He was both the Club's Medical Officer; a Director of the club and an Honorary Team Physician to the England team. The book takes you behind the scenes at Middlebrough F.C. during their most successful years and charts their rise into a championship team, despite the political in fighting. It details his experiences both medical and political as Doctor to the England Football Team throughout 1966, 1970 and 1974 world cup competitions and what really happened when Sir Alf Ramsey left the England setup. It was with England that the special relationship developed with Jack Charlton enabling his introduction as Manager of Middlesbrough Football Club. It is a remarkable story, one that the author is as surprised, as you will be, to read the twists of fate that determine life's journey and the path it takes. It will appeal not only to football fans who remember what football was like before big money took over, but also non-football lovers who enjoy a strange, surprising autobiography.

Irish national hero, a Celtic great and their most-capped player, Patrick 'Packie' Bonner is a goalkeeping legend. He was Jock Stein's last signing for the club when he left his native Donegal for the city of Glasgow in 1978, where Packie evolved from being a shy, homesick teenager into a confident, world-class talent and first-choice goalkeeper. Billy McNeill handed him a debut on St Patrick's Day in 1979, and Packie went on to provide the last line of defence a record 641 times for the club. A seasoned Irish internationalist, Packie was a vital component in the most-celebrated Irish national squad ever, playing in a golden era under the tutelage of the inimitable Jack Charlton. In The Last Line, Packie shares stories from his incredible career, including his greatest moment in front of a global audience during the Italia '90 World Cup tournament when he became the penalty shoot-out hero of the nation by saving a spot-kick that took the Irish to the quarter-finals stage in their very first World Cup adventure. It was an iconic moment that would change his life forever not least because, whilst in Italy, he, along with his teammates, had an audience with another goalkeeper, Pope John Paul II. Throughout his 80 cap international career, he competed against the very best in the world. Men such as Ruud Gullit, Marco Van Basten, Gheorghe Hagi, Roberto Baggio and Gary Lineker came to know the name Packie Bonner. Equally, in his glittering Celtic career that included the winning of four Scottish League titles, three Scottish Cups and one Scottish League Cup, Packie Bonner played alongside some great Celtic names like Tommy Burns, Paul McStay, and Murdo Macleod. Along the way, Packie had to endure a career-threatening back injury, as well as the devastation of a routine save going wrong and costing a goal on the world stage against Holland in 1994, ultimately leading to elimination from the World Cup in America. More than just the telling of trophies, titles and triumphs, this is the story of a Celtic legend and a true great of Irish International football.
