The Itinerant Coach The Footballing Life And Times Of Steve Darby

Steve Darby was raised on old school values in the shadow of the Kop. He bathed in an outside tub, stood on a milk crate on terraces at Anfield and Goodison Park, and went on to spend five decades in football remaining true to himself - and the players he coached. From Bahrain to Tasmania and many points in between, Steve wanted football to be fund for his players and for his players to use football to learn more about life. Along the way, he taught himself Arabic and Malay, dine with sultans and kings, picked up a few medals, upset a few football and actual politicians, and became one of the most successful and effective foreign football coaches in South East Asia.
