Anybody who wants to read that needs help! This is yours truly talking about some of the experiences that have helped to create the absolute legend that is Moi. Some of the tales involve a bit of mischief, and most involve a drink or two. Most importantly, though, they're all a bit of a laugh, so I'd settle down and have yourself a nice little read.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe two things Razor Ruddock can't resist in life are a pint and a dare. That, and seventeen years as a professional footballer under his belt, means he's got a story or two to tell. Chickening out of a fight with Eric Cantona, robbing Alan Shearer's minibar, cinema trips with Gazza, becoming mates with Ian Wright - Razor has seen and done it all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePacked full of hilarious anecdotes, Razor gives us his take on the beautiful game, sharing his tactics (good banter is a defender's duty), red mist (and red cards) on the pitch, run-ins with the FA, and his theory as to why Ingerland never do as well as we'd like, as well as his best ever goal and the greatest night of his sporting life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRazor also lifts the lid on his bad reputation and reveals his regrets, his heroes, his greatest fears (notably upsetting the missus), and what it takes to make Britain's hardest footballer cry. Poignantly, he shares his views on the importance of family and his concerns over footballers' mental health. And the biggest surprise of all: that he was a shy and retiring young lad (and that his love of swearing comes from his mum).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCameo appearances include: Bobby Robson, Diego Maradona, Eric Cantona, Dennis Bergkamp, Harry Redknapp, David Beckham, Alan Shearer, Gazza, Jimmy Case, Phil Taylor, Robbie Williams, and Nelson Mandela (Nelse).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith his trademark wit and charm, Razor takes us on a journey through his life and career, leaving us in no doubt that he is a true footballing legend. Whether you're a fan of the game or not, this is a must-read for anyone who wants to learn more about one of the most iconic players of all time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 204g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 127 x 196 x 22 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781472135292\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Neil 'Razor' Ruddock","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44097866694906,"sku":"9781472135292","price":7.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/world-according-to-razor-my-closest-shaves-1","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
