IAN WRIGHT, AT HIS VERY BEST, SPEAKING FOR HIMSELF:
On prison: 'Don't ever be fooled by films that make prison life out to be anything less than the worst experience in the world – because, believe me, it is hell on earth.'
On football: 'Anybody who plays up front and says they're happy to see their team win, even if they don't score, is a liar... The thrill of seeing the ball hit the back of the net and the goalkeeper lying helpless on the ground is a sight that always gets my blood pumping to such an extent that often I can't control myself and I do silly, crazy celebrations.'
On God: 'I fear God because he's powerful and jealous – and if you don't do the right thing, then he'll smite you, man. That's the philosophy I go by...'
And on: Mark Bright, Gary Linker, Ian Rush, Paul Merson, Bruce Rioch, George Graham...and referees.
And all of it just like the best of his football – straight from the heart.
