This biography of Terry Paine is due to be published towards the end of 2008.
Its contents are:
- Terry’s early years, growing up in Winchester and graduating from Highcliffe Corinthians to Southampton, via Winchester City.
- Southampton FC, 1957-74. A record number of appearances – destined never to be beaten?
- His 19 games for England, climaxing in the game against Mexico, during the World Cup Finals of 1966.
- Player-coach at Hereford United, 974-77.
- His spasmodic career at Cheltenham Town, 1977-79, as a player and later player-manager, with a break to manage in Kuwait.
- His new life in South Africa, beginning with Bobby Charlton’s 1979 tour and continuing, through managing amateur teams to several seasons of managing at the top, with a break to coach at Coventry City.
- His career, still ongoing in his late 60s, as a leading sports-caster – stationed in Johannesburg but broadcasting across Africa and beyond.
- His role as an ambassador for South Africa’s World Cup bid.
This hardback book can be expected to run to 350+ pages, with 250+ photos, which means that its price will be at least £18.99 and probably more.
But by paying £18 now, you will guarantee yourself two things:
- A copy at that special price (plus p&p if you are unable to collect it), with your name printed in the book, in a list of ‘subscribers’ to it); and
- A priority option on attending the book’s launch, attended by Terry and many who played with him at The Dell.
