Book Synopsis
The Back Page is a fascinating look at the world of sports journalism through the eyes of Steve Millar, who spent 50 years covering some of the greatest events in football, golf and tennis. From his early days as a local reporter to an awe-inspiring life on national newspapers, Steve takes us on an incredible journey through the major sporting events of his day, with exclusive behind-the-scenes stories, fun, frolics, rows and bans along the way. He details his personal relationship with some of football's biggest icons - Sir Alex Ferguson and Sir Kenny Dalglish among them - including the times he was banned from Manchester United after heated rows with Sir Alex. Steve reveals what it was like to get to know legends like Bob Paisley and Brian Clough, and to rub shoulders with the greatest stars of the fabulous footballing 90s, like Eric Cantona, Bryan Robson, Steve Bruce and David Beckham. The Back Page is a compelling insider's account of half a century of scintillating sport, bringing you special insight and unheard stories galore.
