The Bonnie Prince Zusammenfassung

The Bonnie Prince Cooke & Knight

Before Joe Cole, Dennis Wise and Frank Leboeuf were 'Here, There and Every ******* Where', there was Charlie Cooke. He arrived at Chelsea in 1966 as a replacement for club favourite Terry Venables and promptly delighted the fans with his superb ball skills, searing runs and perceptive crosses. Most spectacular of all was his magical body swerve that triggered a collective mega-decibel sigh from the Shed. They called him 'the Magician', 'the Maestro' and 'the Wizard', or just 'Charlie, Charlie, Charlie Cooke'. Cooke became a pivotal member of the mercurial Chelsea side of the late 1960s and '70s, playing alongside the likes of Peter Bonetti, Alan Hudson and Peter Osgood. The epic two-match 1970 FA Cup final against arch-enemies Leeds remains to this day one of the most-watched television events ever in the United Kingdom. Like many of the era, Cooke finished his career in America, where he played with and against the likes of George Best and Pele. But unlike most of the other British players, Cooke stayed on in the USA, helping the country to develop as a footballing nation. The Bonnie Prince is an insightful, exciting and entertaining account of a special footballer, once seen never forgotten.

Über Cooke & Knight

Charlie Cooke was capped 16 times by his country and made 289 appearances for Chelsea in two spells at the club. Still committed to football, Cooke now lives and works in America, where he is a director of the world-famous Coerver Coaching. Martin Knight is the author of a number of other books, including the novel Common People and, with Martin King, the terrace-culture classics Hoolifan and The Naughty Nineties. He lives in London with his wife and five children.
