The Football Managers

Produktbeschreibung

There are few posts more dramatic, more controversial, or more public than a football Manager's. The pressures of success, and failure; the problems of finance and business management; the challenge of tactics and training: these are just some of the issues which Tony Pawson examines in this book, originally published in 1973.
