In this eventful autobiography, Alan Curtis--a top Welsh footballer who has played for Leeds United, Southampton, and Cardiff City--recounts the topsy-turvy turns his career has taken, including a disappointing spell at Leeds United in 1979 where, despite being the club's most expensive signing ever at the time, a nasty clash with Peter Shilton left him sidelined for nine months. Determined to prove his critics wrong and overcome his injury, he played some of the best football of his career upon returning to Swansea, before moving to Southampton in 1983 to help the club challenge the Merseyside dominance at the time. Since his playing career wound down in 1987, Alan has remained in the game as a coach with both Swansea City and Wales, giving back to the game the wisdom and experience garnered from his years as a player. In Curt , Alan reflects upon his colorful career, highlights just how much the beautiful game has changed since his playing days, and explains why he's living proof that nice guys don't always finish second.
