There is something for every England football supporter in The England Football Miscellany. The England team has a long and illustrious history, but this book is neither a work of reference, nor a compendium of lists, nor a collection of biographies, nor a compilation of trivia.
In fact, it is a gloriously fandom mixture of all these things and much more besides.
Within these pages, you will learn hundreds or quirky and abstruse facts about the national team on a wide range of topics, from the old Twin Towers to the new Wembley Arch, from hat-trick heroes to penalty shoot-out zeroes, encompassing the famous players, the outstanding managers and all the big match encounters.
“This book is so much more than a history of our national team. It is a trip down the years with lots of interesting facts, figures and trivia about England unearthed along the way”
Sir Tom Finney, CBE
Painstakingly researched by author and true England fan, John White, The England Football Miscellany will bring hours of reading pleasure to any England fan. It also stands as a testimony to the unique and highly significant contribution the national team has made to the history of the game.
John White is a lifelong football fan who has dedicated his spare time, and his computer, to compiling an impressively comprehensive database of sporting facts and figures. Even Wayne Rooney liked the book, saying:
“Everything you ever wanted to know about our national team, and quite a lot more that you would never have dreamt of asking about in a million years”
Wayne Rooney
If anything it will help you to fine tune your knowledge of England for those boozy weekends that happen around ten times a year, when everyone piles into the pubs to watch the national side. So when you look at it like that there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be reading a copy about now.
