Having read both autobiographies by probably two of the most controversial figures in the history of English refereeing, I decided to review and compare both books.
David Elleray's autobiography is really focused on his refereeing and his housemastering at Harrow. He hardly talks about his friends, never talks about his personal life. Even though, it is a very good read. He reviews alot of big matches in wich he was called to make big decisions. He talks very humourousely about his realtionship with Roy Keane, whom he sent off 4 times in his career and explains almost every decisions he made. Excellent read. 8/10
Jeff Winter's autobiography is different to Elleray's. Winter goes a bit more personal, he talks very freely about his family and his boot-boy days when he was a die-hard fan of Middlesbrough. He doesn't explain his decisions like Elleray does but talks a bit more about his life in general. 8/10
Liked both books alot. They are written in two different styles but both are worth reading,. I would recommend both books.
