Sir Bob Murray signs copies of his autobiography 'I'd Do It All Again' to raise funds for the Foundation of Light.
Sir Bob Murray is back in town tomorrow, Thursday 5 November, for two book signings to mark the paperback release of his autobiography, I'd Do It All Again. The first is at Waterstones in The Bridges at 12.30pm, followed by a second session at the Fans Museum at 4.30pm. Both are in Sunderland, so you can pick whichever fits your day better.
The book first came out in hardback three years ago, and this paperback version arrives with a few updates. There's a redesigned cover, an updated final chapter, and a new epilogue that brings the story right up to the present. In it, he covers Sunderland's return to the Premier League and European football, and shares his thoughts on financial fair play, the Manchester City case, and where football is heading. If you've already read the hardback, the epilogue is the bit that's new.
For those who don't know the name, Sir Bob chaired Sunderland AFC for twenty years and was the driving force behind the building of the Stadium of Light. He also set up the club's official charity, the Foundation of Light, and its home, the Beacon of Light. The original hardback raised more than £125,000 for the charity, and all the proceeds from the paperback go there too. The Foundation is celebrating its 25th birthday this year, so the money goes to a cause that's been running in the city for a quarter of a century.
