Описание книги

Sean Long is one of the finest rugby league half-backs to ever pick up the oval ball. Long started his pro career at his hometown club Wigan Warriors and, after a short stop-over at Widnes, he was signed by St Helens in 1997 to fill the boots of another Saints legend, Bobby Goulding. It wasn't long before the Knowsley Road faithful took Longy to their hearts. Long has won every major honour in the game at club level and is the only player in Challenge Cup history to win the Lance Todd Trophy three times as man of the match in the 2001, 2004 and 2006 finals. He also won 15 caps for Great Britain and five for England before retiring from international rugby on 16 April 2007. Still one of the most colourful characters ever to play the game, he continues to wear the No 7 shirt at St Helens.

FOREWORD BY JOHNNY VEGAS

.....

We went back to Edmo’s and I said: ‘Right, I’m phoning the police. I need to come clean before they come to me.’ The cops had my fingerprints on file from an incident I’d been involved with when I was 18, so I was bang to rights. And even if they didn’t catch up with me, I felt well guilty about trashing some stranger’s front door and sleeping in their beds. I told the police what had happened, that I’d thought it was my mate’s house and that I felt really bad. They said they’d send someone round.

While we waited for the police to arrive, one of the lads proudly announced that he’d thought of a new nickname for me: ‘Goldilocks’. It went down a storm. A patrol car arrived within a few minutes and two coppers – both in their forties – came into Edmo’s front room. ‘Okay, what’s the story then?’ one of them asked. I told them exactly what happened, from the kebab and the taxi, to kicking the door in and falling asleep naked. At first I thought I was going to get done but with each step of the story, the coppers just laughed harder. They were both rugby fans and they knew who I was. It was obvious my story was true and I offered to pay for any damage.
