Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Football fans chant the names of speedy centre-forwards and flashy wingers. But "There's only one Dick Chester" is what might have been sung, if the fans of the clubs he served could somehow have appreciated his contribution as Club Secreta…ry.Dick lets us into the secrets of the behind the scenes workings of football, from dodgy deals and brown envelopes, tales of great and not so great managers and their foibles, doors that opened and shut, to the safety of football grounds.Everyone overestimates the contribution of certain players without realising they would be nothing were it not for the skills of club officials like Dick quietly working behind the scenes. Without him Sheffield Wednesday might not have had those glory days under Howard Wilkinson, and Lincoln City and Sheffield United might have gone under without their finances being stabilised by competent administration.True fans realise that more important than winning any trophy is securing the heritage of our clubs and handing it on intact to the next generation - that success on the pitch cannot be achieved and sustained without everyone at the club being united, from fans to ticket sellers to the boardroom, as well as the playing and coaching staff. Dick brings this across clearly and tells his story with a passion for the game. His integrity and honesty shine through.

Contact seller5-star sellerPrinted Blue wraps/tracy. Condition: Good. Dark wraps w/light soiling/staining. RARE. A 44pp. booklet printed at the penitentiary around 1949-53. Probably closer to 1949 as per text (Richard Daley was Mayor). There is a story titled 'Straight from the Shoulder" which is printed throughout the booklet. Interspersed are a lot of q…uotations regarding crime and deterence from Vips from Illinois. The chicago reporter for the Tribune James Doherty started the idea of having "Three Strikes agaisnt Crime" in the city of Chicago. Chester Gould got behind the idea and contributed quite a few drawings and wrote the story including Doherty as "Big Jim" a character in the short novelette. The back cover also incorporates a postcard that was to be sent to the Warden at Stateville for more information about crime prevention. Here is a quote from the forward of the book: "I am one of the guys who traded his name for a number. I work in the print shop at Stateville. Matter of fact, I set the type for this booklet.I hear the booklet's going to be handed out to the Chicago High Schools." Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
