We all know that Bobby Moore was an extraordinary captain and defender, but alongside his legendary feats on the pitch he knew scandal, death threats, bankruptcy business and the sack. He divorced after a long affair, was rumoured to have friends in the East End underworld, and he loved a drink. The tragedy of his life was to be ignored by football in his latter years and to drift into obscurity. Tracing his journey from the East End to a pedestal outside Wembley Stadium, this biography looks at Moore's life from all sides, through the testimony of teammates, rivals, family and friends.
