I have been listening to The Football Manager Show by The Athletic podcast on spotify and each week they have a book club section where they recommend a football book that will make you better at FM or is just an interesting or good read. Thought I would list them all here for everyone else to see and I will add to the list each week as they recommend another. Please comment below with any others that you have read that you think are worth a look and we should get quite a decent list built up.

 

I have linked them all below to amazon for ease but if you can get any of these in your local bookshop try there first as they need our support just now more than Jeff Bezos does!
