A brilliantly illustrated celebration of the colourful and highly idiosyncratic language of sport, by football legend Bob Wilson.

Have you ever flashed at a googly in the corridor of uncertainty while on a sticky dog? Maybe you've seen someone hit a gutty out of the screws to grab a birdie at Amen Corner? Do you dream of playing a bit of up the jumper in a maul with the Barbarians before needing a splash and dance to reach parc ferme at the Brickyard?

The world of sport has its own language, rich in strange words and phrases whose origins often stretch back centuries. Googlies, Nutmegs and Bogeys is an illustrated lexicon - unravelling the true meanings, heritage and evolution of sporting terms - that will enlighten and amuse. Containing old favourites alongside many rare delights, this book is a perfect companion to the glorious absurdities of sporting vocabulary that continue to enliven the English language today.

Presenter and football legend Bob Wilson conducts another engaging romp through sport's more colourful terminology. Why is fighting in a square ring with strange gloves on called boxing? Why is it so difficult to stand up in the Pope's living room? And why does the Prince of Wales dislike buckets of nails and people with wet feet?

"Rucks, Pucks & Sliders" reveals all as Bob Wilson explores the derivation of another collection of bizarre words and phrases from the wonderfully rich language of sport. Find out why, as a custodian, Bob has spent much of his life trying to keep bananas out of onion bags, why a submarine can often land you in a sin bin, who killed the Galacticos, why snooker balls wipe their feet, and why you'll never see a condor from the Crow's Nest. Laced with anecdotes from Wilson's own football and television careers,

"Rucks, Pucks & Sliders" features one of sport's most enduring icons guiding us through the fascinating true meanings, heritage and evolution of great sporting terms we use today. As Kevin Keegan said of his previous book, 'It's a lesson in the language of sport from a man that should know.'

The life story of former Scotland and Arsenal goalkeeper Bob Wilson is a compelling account of professional glory and personal tragedy.

Bob Wilson spent 39 years at Arsenal, as a player then as the first goalkeeping coach in the first division. Following his retirement as a footballer, a career in television beckoned, making him a household name. This autobiography reflects on his days as a sports commentator and presenter at the BBC, and his subsequent switch to ITV, and also includes his account of the Grobbelaar trial and his relationships with some of the most popular names in sport and television, including Des Lynam, Jimmy Hill and David Seaman. He also has affectionate memories of Jill Dando and Helen Rollason, and tells the moving story of his daughter's illness and legacy.

This autobiography is a great read for anyone not only ardent football fans.
