So I took it as a very positive sign that the club came to me rather than the other way round.

Thinking back about throwing myself at certain gentlemen that had no interest in me, that'll bring a blush to my face if I think about it too often.

Other women looked on me as a rival. And it pained me a great deal.

I've blundered my way through life.

I was a guy who showed up for work and took the chance for finding out whether I could do it or not... I'd like to think I made my success not at the expense of anyone. Success was accidental.

I've played a lot of bad guys, 'cause that was the only work I could get. People saw my face and went 'oooh'.

That was' one time when my technique absolutely deserted me, I must admit. There was a wax face that he had created himself to cover his own ugliness. I was in his clutches and I had to hit him in the face.

That first group of Manchester players allowed me to enjoy coaching at a very young age that motivated me to do it. If it wasn't good, I might have made a career change.

I followed my heart and figured that if I tried and failed, at least I'd know that I tried.

I don't think people were betting on me, but they were giving me a chance. I think I rode a wave there, by being different in appearance than the girls who preceded me.
