  Stan Ternant is a legend among football managers. He has a reputation that precedes him and has earned the nickname The Fergie of the Nationwide League . It was Ternant who tamed the wild twins Vinnie Jones and Dennis Wise when they played together at Chelsea and it was Ternant who persuaded Ian Wright to spend his final season at his own club, Burnley. After 40 years in football, Stan is ready to reveal all. From night-time raids on bed-hopping fullbacks, to a blood-soaked, half-time punch up with a rival First Division boss. It is the hilarious memoir of a man whose management style terrifies and inspires in equal measures.
