Description

Football Weekly—the biggest football podcast in the world—has decided the time (and the money) is right to finally commit their wisdom to paper. You know what this means: trivia, filler, too much about The Mighty Cambridge United, not enough about [insert your club], and very occasionally an insightful remark.

Max Rushden and Barry Glendenning's blind date
Mark Langdon's 'World of Meat'
Jonny Liew's 'You Are the Ref'
Ben Fisher's 'Guide to Carparks'
João Havelange's 'Moral Maze'
Philippe Auclair's no-holds-barred account of everything that is wrong with football (redacted).
An exclusive David Squires cartoon
And the true story of Jimbo's great betrayal.

About the Author

Jonathan Wilson is a British sports journalist and contributor to Football Weekly. He writes for Guardian, Sports Illustrated, World Soccer and Unibet. He is the founder and editor of the Blizzard. His book Inverting the Pyramid was shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award and won 'Best Football Book' at the British Sports Book Awards. He is the author of eleven other books.

Max Rushden is the host of the Guardian Football Weekly. The bosses very smartly wanted him to have no part of this book. But he demanded the opportunity to see his three anecdotes in print. He currently plays CDM for the University of Melbourne Bohemians in a role he calls the non-moving pivot.

Barry Glendenning is the beating heart of the Guardian's Football Weekly podcast due in no small part to his penchant for daily 5am rises and regular ice baths. He harbours an unhealthy bias against your football team.
