There's only one Neil Lennon (0/0 people found this helpful)
Great book and gives a great insight behind Lenny's battles off the pitch and on. Battling against depression and publicising it was a brave move and one that has gained him even more respect from football fans everywhere. Love him or hate him this is a great read.
a play with words ,Man and Bhoy?!!! (0/1 people found this helpful)
Neil Lennon brought a lot on himself when playing for Celtic we all Irish Roman Catholics have to suffer religious bigotry in Scotland,he was lucky he only had it for the time he was up here,Neil Lennon only became a "Celtic fan" when he signed for Celtic as he supported Liverpool as a Man and Boy,I read the book but have read better.
The Bhoy Deserves Respect (1/1 people found this helpful)
HAIL HAIL,
I am a BIG Celtic Fan and a Fellow Bhoy recommended that I got Lenny's book because it gave a real insight into His life. I got this book last november and I have to say what a brilliant read it was it really does open Your eyes. I recommend this not only to Celtic Fans but anyone who supports a different team or I think it would be great for a school/university portfolio. I'll let You find out Yourself but it is such a good and indepth read and after reading this My respect for Lenny grew even more,I've always respected Him but after reading about His struggles and His fight with depression I have nothing but admiration for the Bhoy.
HAIL HAIL KING NEIL LENNON YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE
Good, but filled with inconsistencies (2/5 people found this helpful)
Neil comes across as being very honest in this book. It is a good read. However, he states that Willie Thorns was a former world snooker champion. This is incorrect as Willie Thorne never was. He mentions that Martin O'Neil won 64 caps playing for Northern Ireland where, approx. 15 pages later, Martin O'Neil goes onto explain to another player in front of Neil Lennon what he won as a player, including winning 62 caps playing for Northern Ireland. When I read inconsistencies like this, the credibility of the book drops & starts to disappoint me. If you don't mind such inconsistencies, then read the book, as you will enjoy it.
The Honest Man (4/5 people found this helpful)
This is the 1st Autobiography I have ever read and if this is what the standard is like I could be buying others.
He pours his heart into the book, and reveals everything from the good and bad about him. Tells the stories about him having to give up the International career to all his heart stopping injuries etc, which I never knew about. This is not just a book for celtic fans but fans of autobiographys.
