Despite being considered the greatest coach in the history of the game, Jimmy Hogan is also the great mystery man of British football. His significance has so far been misunderstood by historians and his influence misapplied. A previous attempt at writing his life story was so poorly conceived that it wrongly stated his date of birth and held that he was utterly integral in the 6-3 defeat of England by Hungary in 1953. Others have argued that he was solely responsible for the development of 'Total Football' and should be considered 'the father of Brazilian football'.

Hogan's renown is undoubtedly merited but his achievements are now for the first time presented in their proper context. This new biography looks at the impact of his leaving the priesthood as the key turning point in his life and examines his incredible mastery of the media of his time - the key reason why Hogan became so famous. It examines the strange relationship he had with a number of administrators and British club sides and the concerns and issues professional players had with him and his work.

This biography challenges the understanding of what we know of Hogan and examines him afresh. It seeks to present Hogan not from the prism of positive bias but to objectively assess his faults, failures and successes and leaves open the question as to whether Jimmy Hogan really was the Greatest Coach Ever?

Fantastic ball
My son's dog is a pit and she couldn't destroy it like her other toys. Large or xtra large is better

Great for a very aggressive chewer
Our neighbor has a lab that's trained exclusively as a duck dog. My wife and I play with her on a daily basis and these Chuck It balls and her favorite retrieval toy and hold up well to some of the most aggressive chewing I've every seen - she non-stop chews on the ball during 45 minute play times. As a duck dog she's trained to retrieve in water and these balls float very well and she's never been able to puncture a ball despite her chewing. A great value that lasts.

great sturdy ball for aggressive chewers!
This is my 100-pound doodle's very favorite ball - he is obsessed with it. I keep at least two in storage at all times just in case his goes missing. He is a strong chewer and these are VERY difficult to destroy - not completely impossible (he put a gash in one), but pretty close!

Better than tennis balls for dogs
Color: Orange, Size: Large
My trainer said better for my German Shepherds than tennis balls. They seem to like them, and they last a lot longer than regular tennis balls. We started using regular tennis balls as the dog ones broke first time out. They still managed to break the regular tennis balls also, just not a quickly. Once I found out tennis balls were not good on their teeth I bought these. The rubber ones are great.
