Although I wasn't expecting him to articulate himself very well, I was surprised by the way he came across.<BR/><BR/>Was watching Liverpool/Everton last night with M and when Gerrard was substituted it did make me think of him a new light, knowing how furious he would have been, even though he was injured. <BR/><BR/>I don't know much about the circumstances surrounding the evening resulting in the court case as everyone has read something different, but knowing that he has found himself in difficult situations before by going out drinking in Southport, you would have thought he'd have learnt to be more careful.<BR/><BR/>And yes, I agree, it is odd publishing an autiobiography part way through a career. But perhaps no-one would be interested once it's over?Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15452082852708707013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30792847.post-81141492941662642692009-02-05T09:30:00.000+00:002009-02-05T09:30:00.000+00:00I like to read autobiographies at the end of peopl...I like to read autobiographies at the end of people's careers, haven't really got into the idea of reading these mid (early) life autobiographies.<BR/><BR/>That said I am a fan of Gerrard's though have to say your review has tarnished that a bit, not helped by his impending court case. <BR/><BR/>These guys should really stick to what they do best, kick balls, until they can't anymore, then maybe they can tell us about it.Jermachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12734200118789445396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30792847.post-77463982796920765382009-02-04T16:32:00.000+00:002009-02-04T16:32:00.000+00:00Kristy - Carragher's has been suggested as a good ...Kristy - Carragher's has been suggested as a good comparison. I might give David's another bash. Maybe. Have you seen his blog?<BR/><BR/>Hannah - It wasn't on mine either, but M's Mum gave it to his Dad in his stocking at Christmas and it was brought on hols, so I ended up reading it. The comparisons between that and the other autobiography I read were endless (Dreams From My Father)! <BR/><BR/>Who is The Bolter about?Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15452082852708707013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30792847.post-50526026519337623092009-02-04T16:23:00.000+00:002009-02-04T16:23:00.000+00:00:o) I have to admit it's not on my 'to read list' ...:o) I have to admit it's not on my 'to read list' but I shall be sure to avoid it!!
