    There must be, he's onto every mention of Mr. C within about five minutes.

  • [cite]Posted By: incorruptible addick[/cite]Thanks, all is clear now regarding Sir Jimmy Seed's literary outpourings.

    What I am holding in my hand is ''Soccer From The Inside'' by - as the original dust jacket delightfully puts it - ''Jimmy Seed, Ex-International Player & Successful Club Manager'', published in 1947.

    Parts of this, it seems, were reworked and expanded with new and updated material as ''The Jimmy Seed Story'' a decade later (Soccer From The Inside only has 112 pages, and looks very much like a product of a publishing industry still recovering from paper rationing). Don't have a copy of the '57 book and would offer good money for one if anyone has one they are prepared to sell...

    Interesting, Incorruptible. I hadn't heard of the 1947 published "Soccer from the Inside".
    My 1957 copy of "The Jimmy Seed Story", contains 128 pages and some B/W photos.

    I picked it up secondhand about 1978. I couldn't sell it though, just couldn't.
  • Oggy, was my memory right about the unhappiness of his departure? He was too old school to vent his true feelings but the impression is of a man who felt he had been treated with the loyalty he might have expected.

    Available as a part of a three book set on Ebay:

  • Thanks for the patronizing post "mate" - I don't think I am "incredibly naive" but nor am I so ill mannered that I would go around casting aspersions about people I don't know.

    Regardless, it looks like they DO know each other.....

    I would be interested to know how they do know each other, they don't have a single club in common and have never even been in the same city at the same time.

    Sorry grumps, just thought that was common knowledge that football's a pretty small world. I know a few non league footballers that are on first name terms with a few premier league stars for example.
