Drinks All Round

Kevin Drinkell has always put himself in the firing line. Now he lifts the lid on his rollercoaster life in football – as a striker, manager and top football agent. ‘Drinks’ was one of the most prolific forwards in the British game and his scoring exploits had top managers like Terry Venables and Alex Ferguson vying for his signature. Kevin reveals his pride as he fired Grimsby Town up the leagues and then his hurt and anger as his hometown team blocked his move to the big-time. He recalls his action-packed spell at Norwich City, where he was Player of the Year for two consecutive seasons, how he knocked back a move to Manchester United and was denied a dream switch to Spurs. Drinks also admits for the first time how he made a major mistake in quitting Rangers after he had finished as the SPL’s top scorer and helped the Ibrox giants take their first step on the road to Nine-in-a-Row. Kevin then returned to England and now tells of his catastrophic move to Coventry, his falling out with his former Rangers captain Terry Butcher and why he returned to Scotland to help lead Falkirk and Stirling Albion to glory. Drinks All Round is an honest, revealing, no-holds-barred account of a footballer who scored goals wherever he went.
