Summary

This is the remarkable story of a local lad who grew up in the shadow of Upton Park and became ‘Mr West Ham’: a one-club man who lived the dream.

A modern footballing legend, Mark Noble is the embodiment of what it means to be a Hammer, pouring his heart and soul into the club he supported as a boy. Born and raised in Canning Town, Mark joined the West Ham youth squad in 2000 and made his senior-team debut aged just 17.

Now, after over 20 years, with a wealth of memories and more than 500 appearances for his boyhood club under his belt, Mark finally looks back at his remarkable career, reflecting on his journey from boot boy to club captain, bossing the midfield, scoring pressure penalties and becoming an inspirational figurehead on and off the pitch.

This is the story of a brilliant footballer, a genuine ambassador and a local legend. This is the unforgettable autobiography of Mark Noble.

Mr West Ham

Good insight into Nobe’s mind but I feel like more detail could have gone into this. Hopefully there is a part 2 on the horizon

Legend

Great Listen!! Fantastic Career and player. Interesting to hear an inside view across the last 20 years of a massive part of my life.
Laughed and got emotional.
Only thing I would say, would have loved Nobes to have been the Narrator.

Brilliant book unfortunately read by a robot

The book itself is amazing, it had me laughing out loud and nearly in tears throughout, unfortunately the narrator was awful, the story wasn't fluid and his pronunciation of names such as Jim Magilton and Marco Arnautavic shows he knows nothing about football. I would suggest that audible either get the author or a football fan to read autobiographies in future

One Of Our Own. . . ⚒️

Light, easy and honest content, but you should’ve had one of your own read it Nobes. . . Reader lacks empathy and it doesn’t connect the way it could/should.

For the West Ham or football fans!

The reader made it feel like it was Marks voice and the story is mainly about West Han, so that is great. A bit of family but more football. Great listen. Moves quickly!
