"This is a book about football and Britain, and Britain and
football. You can't fully understand one without the other; and if
you haven't got a sense of humour it's not worth even trying." "My
name's Tim Marshall and it's been a week since my last match. I
support a football club. That's not just five words; it' s a life
sentence." Why do so many of us attend football grounds, rain or
shine, week in week out, to bellow at our fellow countrymen?
Football chants are the grassroots of the game, from the Premier
League all the way down to the Conference and beyond. They're
funny. And they're sharp. And in the UK they run very deep. In this
witty and insightful account, Tim Marshall tells the story of
British football through the songs and chants that give it meaning.
This is a book about the fans, written for the fans, with all the
flair and banter that bring the beautiful game to life. No other
sport has a culture quite like it.
