One of the great characters of the game, Iwan Roberts has been a cult figure at more clubs than he's had teeth knocked out by defenders (but only just!). All I Want for Christmas is a stunningly candid fly-on-the-dressing-room-wall insight from the club captain, striker and fans' hero as he battles to help Norwich win promotion to the Premiership in 2003/2004 (and in so doing score his 100th goal for the club). It's not a tale of mansions, fast cars and promotional trips to the Far East, it's a gritty, sometimes hilariously funny, diary of a footballer's life and his reflections on a career in the game as he rides the emotional roller-coaster of City's most exciting season for years.
