Publisher Description
Lifes A Ball charts the ups and downs of a football experience that has rarely been dull! Ian Liversedges story comes from the very heart of the game the managers office, the dug-out, the boot room and the treatment table. Ian describes his relationships with managers and players at every level from non-league to international as well as the changing role of a physiotherapist in a sport that has become ever-more intense. There are many anecdotes about a lifestyle away from the football pitch that Ian found both attractive and magnetic. He has blazed a trail and the book deals honestly with his shortcomings, including encounters with the police and the adverse effect on his family life.

Soss is part of the old guard as I like to call them, part of a small clubs history, their greatest in fact. The team being Oldham Athletic. My first memories of watching Oldham as a child include some players, but not all. It does however include the physio. Strange as that might seem it's true amongst many people of the same age. That's why I bought this book. Ian provides a gripping insight into the highs and lows of his job and life. I doubt many physio's today can tell such stories. One day I hope to meet Ian again so I can thank him for this book, because it provided me with new stories and refreshed old memories I'll tell again and again.
Thanks Ian
