'Shades of Blue' - David White Autobiography

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

That's why i remember it so vividly. Felt so much for him. As well as the pisstaking from plastic rags at school the next day.

Just be thankful that we had him and we knew he was the absolute tits. And fucking fast. He was unplayable for two seasons

Yeah.

I remember him getting a Hat Trick at Forest which meant everything to me living in Nottingham. Lost count of his crosses which Quinn got on the end of too. Was gutted when he was sold.

That's just how long it felt to him after missing that sitter 30 seconds into his full england debut against Spain.

Looks a good read.

I mentioned this on the Keith Curle thread yesterday, he was centre forward that game wasn't he?, not sure if it was the same game but Taylor played Curle at right back

Just finished it

Always interesting, often enthralling, but a deeply disturbing read - poor bloke.

 

[Bluster]

I hope it's been cathartic for him. it's extremely brave to talk about the abuse but should help force the authorities to properly review how this was allowed to happen at so many clubs.

Would hardly call it a sitter.

You're right. It was a one on one wasn't it? I think nerves got better of him.

Woudn't 'Shades of White' have been a more pithy title?


I'll definitely be reading this one

Not really because anything other than pure white isn't really white at all.
