An Arsenal Life is the story of the lost world of Arsenal’s post-war history told through the lens of lifelong super-fan Martin Wengrow, a friend and confidant to legendary players and managers from the 1960s to the late 1990s. The kind of access Martin enjoyed would be impossible in today's game. This is his Arsenal life!
An Arsenal Life brings you all the highs and lows of the club’s post-war history from a unique insider’s perspective. As a close friend and confidant to Arsenal players and managers from the 1960s to the late 1990s, Martin Wengrow enjoyed the kind of access that would be impossible in today's game.
Foreword by Arsenal legend David O’Leary.
In this unique book you’ll discover:
Exclusive behind-the-scenes stories, including on the pioneering tactical and coaching work of Dave Sexton and Don Howe
Martin’s privileged relationship with manager George Graham, through which he was party to transfer discussions and Graham’s thoughts on the development of his team
A very personal take on the George Graham ‘bung’ scandal
How Martin travelled to away games and European games with the players and stayed at the same hotels as them
Insight from the dressing rooms where Martin found himself repeatedly, including after clinching the league title in 1971, then a few days later at Wembley when Arsenal secured the ‘double’, through to the Gunners’ final game of the 1988/89 season at Anfield
Details of his close friendships with club legends such as Frank McLintock, Peter Storey, John Radford, George Graham and David O’Leary
This extraordinary book captures the lost world of Arsenal’s latter 20th-century history, viewed through the lens of Martin Wengrow, who had privileged access to the club and its stars. This is his Arsenal life!
