FORMER Everton physio Mick Rathbone will be signing copies of his excellent autobiography, ‘The Smell of Football’, next Saturday.

Mick, whose book tells the story of his eventful 35-year career in professional football as a player, physio and manager, will be at Waterstones in Birkenhead from 12pm and Waterstones in Liverpool Bold Street from 3pm.

The book was nominated for ‘Football Book of the Year’ at last month’s British Sports Book Awards and has enjoyed rave reviews from football fans across the country.

The signings are a great chance to get a copy signed just in time for Father’s Day as the book approaches the first anniversary of its release.
