    yeah Neil Lennon's was a good read, very insightful into his depression etc as well as his death threats. Doesn't hold back. Petrov's was also decent, and Strachan, although not a player, is a good read and discusses his time at Celtic in reasonable detail, albeit only some of the seasons as he was still manager when it came out.

    Although not a Celtic player, Pele's is the best autobiography i have read - great stuff

    Read Di Canio's when I was a teenager. Learned all about his terrible addiction to Coke. No not cocaine, just Coca Cola. Maybe it was this horrific affliction which turned him into a * * :39::*:
