The Lawman – Denis Law

The Lawman – Denis Law

Denis Law remains one of the greatest names ever to have graced a football stadium. He personified the spirit of Manchester United during the sensational sixties and of course he breathed the fire of Scotland in the furthest corners of the world.

Denis Law became a legend as he played and remains a legend today. In this highly charged and amusing memoir, Law takes us through the various – often controversial – steps of his phenomenal career and reveals how he really felt when he scored the goal that sent his favourite team into relegation. But more than that, Denis talks about the fire that still burns within him, the wish that he was still pulling on those famous United and Scotland shirts.

He talks about life as television pundit, travelling to the sunny shores of the Mediterranean and the frozen wastes of Siberia just to give his opinion on a football match. And he talks about today’s game and in particular about today’s Manchester United. One of the most popular and charismatic figures ever involved in football, Denis Law also reveals his serious side, his brushes with death and his hopes for the future. This is not just a football story, it is the unique tale of a unique world star. At times he shoots from the hip – but then what else would you expect from The Lawman?
