À propos de l?auteur
Les Scott is a journalist, writer and broadcaster who has collaborated on successful autobiographies with Stanley Matthews, Jimmy Greaves, Tommy Docherty and Fred Trueman, among others, as well as working for national and regional newspapers and in television, film, theatre and radio. He has also co-written the recent bestselling autobiography by Liverpool footballing legend Tommy Smith, Anfield Iron.
À propos de la deuxième de couverture
Do you ever feel that the real history of football has never been written? It's all very well having the facts at your fingertips, but what are the true stories behind those statistics? And do you know the answers to some really quite important questions, like which club is still officially at war with Germany, who was the first player to score direct from a corner kick, which trophy has three handles, and when was a match postponed because of a solar eclipse?
End-to-End Stuff, Les Scott's exhaustive life's work, answers all those questions. In sixty-six (there wasn't room for 1966) handy, informative and entertaining sections, it covers everything from balls to caps, blunders and coincidences, strips, songs and even the weather, revealing tales lost in the mists of football time through a winning combination of anecdotes, facts, quotes and statistics.
But perhaps most importantly, it permits the likes of Bobby Fairfoul, Barry Wardrobe, Eggcup Emberton, Barney Battles, Ken Smith 1 and Ken Smith 2, Tommy Trial and Trevor Womble - not to mention those famous match officials Charlie Faultless and Arthur Bookim - to reclaim their rightful positions alongside Bobby Moore, David Beckham and Wayne Rooney in the annals of football history.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. When was an England versus Germany match scheduled for the anniversary of Hitler's birthday? Which is the only club to have scored and conceded 100 goals in a season? Did you know that Bobby Moore's middle name was Chelsea? Who was the last person to score on his debut for England - but never play for his country again? Can you name the 12 players to have won the league title with two different clubs? The answers to all these questions, and a thousand more besides, can be found - where else? - in End to End Stuff: The Essential Football Book. With 66 chapters (there wasn't room for 1966) covering everything from balls to caps, blunders and coincidences, strips, club songs and even the weather, Les Scott tells the history of the game through a winning combination of anecdotes, facts, quotes and statistics. Which two players scored hat-tricks in Arsenal's 6-1 Premiership win against Southampton in 2003? Who said: "If we play like that every week, we'll achieve some level of consistency"? When were league games first played on a Sunday? What was Chris Waddle's job before he became a professional footballer? And did you hear about the Scottish centre-forward who received a live lamb as a bonus for scoring a goal, but was too sheepish to butcher it? With sections devoted to the history of domestic league and cup competitions, as well as major European and international trophies (not to mention the unwritten laws of football, what happened to Tunji Banjo, and why 3,964 is the World Cup's magic number), End to End Stuff is a treasure trove of information. This is a football reference book like no other - informative, revealing, fun, and ideal for resolving those pub arguments. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR004087940
