Fakta
Easy to read and unputdownable, this hilarious book holds more than 200 football stories from Britain and around the world – from the origins of the game right up to the present day.
Filled with fun anecdotes, bizarre records and tons of trivia, Funny Old Game uncovers the weirder side of the beautiful game. Read and discover:
? The goalkeeper who was sent off for handling the ball in the area
? The police dog that inadvertently saved a club from relegation
? The team that won their league after scoring fewer goals than all the other sides
? The goalscorer who lost a body part while celebrating a goal
? The manager who blamed the colour of the stadium seats for his team’s poor performance
? The club that wanted to dig a moat around its pitch and fill it with crocodiles to stop pitch invaders
? And much, much more!
With forgotten history, reports of the most famous – and infamous – matches, maverick players, diabolical referees, plus plenty of obscure and silly ‘funny haha’ and ‘funny peculiar’ moments – this is a book that all football fans will cherish.
