KEITH GILLESPIE AUTOBIOGRAPHY.

CRAZYCHAIR

Just finished reading his autobiography. Must say what a nice change for a player to be so open and honest about there mistakes on and off the pitch. Worth a read if you get chance.

or do what we usually do, go into Waterstones, straight to the index, find the 2 pages which mention Charlton... :-)

Two pages?! You mean the one sentence.

Richard J

It was one sentence if I remember rightly. I read it in a bookshop.

He said that football wise the loan was 'good' but that Sheffield united recalled him due to an injury crisis.

One of the Loanees in one of the worst "Loan Periods" for the club

I remember though when he was subbed after getting a knock he walked passed me and had the decency to acknowledge me when I called out "Get well soon" or something

Surprised that didn't make the book

cafctom

Didn't he lose something like £7 million in gambling?

CRAZYCHAIR

Yes. The books title is How not to be a football millionaire.

I don't think the question was aimed at Gillespie, but 'CrazyChair' will know that...
