Wingin' It

A story of hope over hate: the insightful autobiography of a footballer who beat the bigots.

Mark Walters always felt he needed to be twice as good as other players to succeed. He drew inspiration from Cyrille Regis and went on to fulfill his potential, flaunting his ball skills for England. From escaping pedophile Ted Langford to becoming an idol at Villa Park, Walters' journey was marked by challenges. A move to Scotland brought bananas and pigs' feet, but he stood firm, becoming a popular export.

Reunited with Graeme Souness at Liverpool after a third league title, Walters rewrote records but later called his move south "the biggest mistake of my career." Wingin' It is a testament to resilience, offering a candid look at a life lived in the face of adversity.
