Anyone, notably those of a "certain age", looking for ideas for a last-minute christmas gift could do a lot worse than buying Terry Clawson's autobiography "All the Wrong Moves". Written by his own fair hand this gives an honest account of the life of a RL player in the 60's - 80's with much to entertain the reader. I found that it provided a real insight to the mentality of a RL player of those days, and possibly even today, mostly based upon the immediacy of the moment and with very little real thought towards the future, uncertain as it often proved to be.

Highly recommended and taking a place of honour on Johnny's extensive bookshelf.



(n.b it is produced in Dewsbury by the Book Factory.)

BSJ, is this book available readily or only available through the Internet?

I bought mine on Ebay where quite a few copies have been on offer over the last few weeks.

You could try giving the Book Factory a ring 01924 464502.
