Dave Jones is one of the most respected managers in football, who took Cardiff to the FA Cup final, Wolves to the Premier League and Stockport to their highest ever league position. But few fans could possibly identify with the anguish and turmoil that blighted his life. A family man and the loving father of four children, Dave's world was turned upside-down when, while manager of Southampton, he was charged with child abuse relating to his time working as a care worker. This is the acclaimed tale of Jones's life as a player and manager - which ground to a halt in the face of threats from those who sought to finish him. Dave explains how he dealt with the accusations, the loss of his job and the traumatic effect on his family - and how against all the odds, he picked up the pieces and resumed a highly successful managerial career.
