Ever wondered how a transfer deal is done? What a manager says during his pre-match team-talk? What he screams from the techincal area? What goes on in training sesions, and on those long away trips? How a manager carefully builds a team, and what he does when the planning is disrupted by injuries? How he lifts a team after a crushing defeat, and keeps their feet on the ground after a resounding victory? How the man in charge handles the ever-present danger of getting sacked in the ultimate results business? In short, how one of today's top professional footballer managers somehow copes with the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, with having to live, breathe and sleep football 24 hours a day, 365 days a year? Then read The Gaffer.

In today's digital age, thousands and thousands of independent filmmakers are challenging Hollywood's elite, best-of-the-best film producers. A Gaffer's Perspective on Independent Filmmaking examines why so many first-time independent film productions are doomed to failure before the first day of principal photography ever begins. Learning what dooms a production is only half of the process; teaching successful practices and techniques, while revealing many of the tricks of the trade used by the big productions, is the other half. With examples of actual productions gone awry, combined with "should haves," this book is a "must have" for a successful filmmaking experience.

This publication portrays the life of John "Gaffer" Rollinson, one of the most dangerous men in the country. Rollinson could have been a boxer, but he was booted out of the sport as a teenager because his wild rages made him unfit to fight under the Queensberry rules and he was deemed an unacceptable risk even in the most violent of sports. So he became a barber, but his cut-throat razor was soon put to a bloodier use as he carved a notorious reputation for himself thoughout the clubland and debt collection circuit. Yet despite his appalling record of violence, Gaffer is not a man without compassion: ask the teenage drug addict he picked up off the street and on whom he spent thousands of pounds in a drug rehabilitation clinic; or the neighbors whose mortgage he paid for six months to prevent them from being evicted. Gaffer is a character people love or hate; there is no in-between.
