Roma have risen from their ruins! Manolas, the Greek God in Rome!
The unthinkable unfolds before our eyes. This was not meant to
happen, this could not happen . . . this is happening! Peter Drury
If football is the beautiful game, then commentators are its poets.
Whether it's the brevity of Barry Davies, the boundless enthusiasm
of Clive Tyldesley or the sheer eloquence of Peter Drury's
monologues, the canon of football commentary is replete with
memorable lines that would have some of the great classical orators
nodding in appreciation. Curated by football journalist Charlie
Eccleshare, The Beautiful Poetry of Football Commentary is a
glorious anthology of iconic lines, set out as poems, celebrating
the best commentators that have ever graced a microphone. Each poem
is accompanied by 'scholarly' analysis capturing the enduring power
of language on the beautiful game. So, drink it in, and immerse
yourself in classic verse from Ali Brownlee, Andy Gray, Brian
Moore, David Coleman, John Motson, Jon Champion, Jonathan Pearce,
Kenneth Wolstenholme, Martin Tyler, and many more. ----- "It is a
privilege to be part of this excellent work" - Martin Tyler "There
have been some brilliant lines of commentary down the years and
Charlie's academic deconstruction of them is terrific." - Peter
Drury
