rejected · Jan 25, 2017

Hello everyone. I hope you are well, you could well of heard about my book as Coventry City are mentioned in EVERY single TV and newspaper article I do on the book.

Basically I wrote to EVERY club in the country applying to be their manager using funny letters over an 8 year period. The book compiles all the letters and responses I received, some of which were brilliant.

The Coventry story was BRILLIANT due to the incredibly unique response I received. The club have been brilliant with me and also tweeted about the book.

As mentioned, I've done several interviews, the biggest one being on talkSPORT, H and J loved the book and especially the Coventry story.

It is available as an eBook for just £2.99 here -

It appears the link won't load the actual book - it is REJECTED by Peter Richardson

Amazon product ASIN
It is also available as a paperback if you're interested.

Many thanks for allowing me to post this on your board, I am sure your fans will really enjoy the book.

If you have any questions please fire away.

I'll be honest, it's not particularly our greatest season or greatest moment!!

The book does have some other great stories in it, I entered the betting market for one (then) premier league job. I was considered too good for one club and was offered a job by one!! Several clubs have been brilliant, really brilliant. Yours was one of them. I hope you enjoy it.

Small world!! Happy to post you a copy if you use PayPal??

The Reverend Skyblue · Jan 25, 2017

Can you tell your fellow fans to let go of the hate for Cov.
Was it season 77/78 that you blame on us ,though you forget to mention Sunderland were shit in the other 41 games that season which was really to blame for your demise.
Was it another season in the nineties you blame on us as well, can't keep track on all the things you blame us for.
Anyway enjoy the Championship, and just to point out we are not to blame for this relegation, and spare a thought for us when we are playing the likes of Exeter and Newport County next season.
Hope the book goes well too

rob9872 · Jan 25, 2017

I'll buy a copy but only if there's a whole chapter dedicated to how much of a c*nt Nicky Scumerbee is.

Thanks!! Yeah, the 96/97 season, your game away at Spurs was delayed. I explain why it was delayed in the book!! It's true too!!

I'll have a word with them!! Hopefully they'll listen!!

Thank you, hope you enjoy it if you give it a go?!

You should buy it, heard it's a good book!! However, don't think there is a mention of him in there??!!

Have I missed something he has done? Is it just you or do all Cov fans dislike him?!

rob9872 · Jan 25, 2017

Ended Steve Froggatt's career at a time when he was playing some of the best wide football ever seen in a City shirt (never saw enough of Hutch).

Nick · Jan 25, 2017

Any free copies to give to a user for a random competition prize? They can also review it then
