Jumpers for goalposts : how football sold its soul
Smyth, Rob2011
Books, Manuscripts
'Jumpers for Goalposts' is a reflection on the history of football, which examines why the charm, innocence and good humour has disappeared from today's game, compared to the golden days of yesteryear. Smyth considers everything from the huge wage bills, to players' lack of loyalty to their clubs and their escapades off the pitch.
