Football legend and Radlett resident David Pleat has spoken to Radlett News about his incredible career following the recent release of his new book, Just One More Goal.
Pleat, who was the manager of Tottenham Hotspur four times between 1986 and 2001, said he chose to write the book when his wife passed away after several years living with motor neurone disease.
He said: “It’s the story of my life, starting with how I grew up in Nottingham. I thought this was the time to write a book. I’ve had a wonderful life.”
Speaking on his time as a manager, which he covers in the book, Pleat said being in the dugout can be tougher that people think.
He said: “Everyone thinks they’d like to be a manager, but it can be hot in the hot seat.”
The book is also raising money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association.
David is hosting an evening at the Abbey Theatre in St Albans on Tuesday, February 11. For more information, head to www.shorturl.at/X7kpb
