## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic insight into the world of refereeing
*by E***E on 17 August 2013*

Poll gives a great insight into the small world of elite referees. He brings all the issues, pressures, highs and lows on board but also lets us the fans, the players, and the others understand that every referee is also "a human". Its a well written book that should inspire those thinking of becoming referees in the future. All Premier League fans should read it too so they can be better informed about the various refereeing "mistakes".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book, well written and provides an insight
*by A***R on 19 December 2012*

I have to admit that I feel my opinion of Graham Poll was somewhat coloured by the media before reading this book. He has always been portrayed as being an arrogant so and so who consistently wanted the cameras to be on him. While after reading this book I'm not going to say he is completely adverse to the publicity he has got during the course of his career, I do have a new found respect for him. Throughout this book Graham recounts on various interactions with players, managers and members of the media. It is extremely interesting reading at times and gives the reader a real persepective into how challenging the job of being a referee at the highest level can be. One really interesting story for me was about when Graham was an assistant referee in which Pierluigi Collina, the legendary italian referee was 'in the middle'. Graham spoke of a pre match meeting where Collina spoke about the various tactics both teams would use, what would happen if one team went a goal up etc etc. Graham said that all of these predictions as to tactics etc were accurate as the game unfolded.Graham Poll is no wall flower. He does sound like he liked the attention of his job, but why not? Overall a really good book.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Something Missing
*by B***E on 5 December 2007*

I was left with mixed feelings after reading Mr Poll's little effort. I was left feeling a little disappointed with Poll's version of what happened in Germany 2006. I may be totally wrong but there does appear to be vital bits of information missing.If you believe what's in the book; what happened should never have happened, but it did, and the reasons given as to why it all went wrong, for me, do not hang together if you get what I mean. The book also gives considerable coverage to the Poll/John Terry incident which seemed to go on and on. However, it does give you an insight into the life of a Referee and if you can ignore that the writer is clearly 'up himself' then it's worth reading.
