The Talksport 100 Greatest British Sporting Legends

Description

In this wonderful celebration of all that is best about British sport, talkSPORT has taken on the challenge of listing the 100 greatest sporting legends since the war. Featuring contributions from many of talkSPORT's own presenters, including Alan Brazil, Darren Gough and Stan Collymore, the talkSPORT team has drawn up its definitive listing of Britain's top sports stars. Of course, being talkSPORT, nothing is straightforward and the opinions are hotly debated. Some surprising names make into the list, while others are relegated to the bottom or even fail to appear at all. Who comes out on top: Steve Backley or Phil 'The Power' Taylor? Who is the greatest football legend? Each of the 100 stars is fully profiled, with surprising and fascinating information revealed about all of them, and their individual ranking in the list is fully justified. In short, this book will not only provide some happy memories of great achievements, but cause much controversy - just like talkSPORT itself.
