Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Leighton has spent a lifetime in soccer, and now the former Scotland goalkeeper shares the memories of a remarkable career in this volume. He unveils the depths of his misery and tells why he will never again speak to Sir Alex Ferguson. He also breaks his silence to explain the real reason behind his shock decision to quit Scotland's squad as he neared a century of caps. Leighton admits that the domestic and European success he enjoyed during his first spell with Aberdeen, the club with whom he launched his career, made him totally unprepared for the agony of becoming a Manchester United reject.
