For the last two-and-half years, I have been on an incredible, often surreal journey talking to Premier League managers.
It all started when I met the then Tranmere Rovers manager, Micky Mellon, in a hotel gym in Stevenage. We quickly began talking about football, education, leadership and how all three had so much in common. That led to meeting up over dinner in Liverpool with a couple of other football people and talking about how we could work together. From there, the idea for a book was born: The First 100 Days.
The book was published on March 25 (all proceeds to the Len Johnrose Trust, which supports the MND Association in its fight against motor neurone disease). Co-writing the book has been a learning experience that has made me a better person, father, husband and headteacher.
