Book Preview: #1 My last game was against West Bromwich Albion, and I was proud and relieved to be delivering this fine group of players and staff into David Moyes's care. The players had wanted to make a presentation to mark my retirement, but they still had me with them. #2 I had decided to retire in 2012. Around Christmas-time, the thought became clear in my head: I'm going to retire. I explained the reasons to David Gill, who understood. They agreed to bring in Moyes, who was available, as soon as possible. #3 I knew David Moyes' family background. His father was a coach at Drumchapel, where I played as a lad. I was impressed by him right away, and the Glazers liked him. I knew he would be a straight-talker, which was a virtue. #4 I announced the news to the players and staff at Carrington. I urged the crowd to stand by the next manager, David Moyes. I did not want to praise any individual, but rather the club as a whole
