Scunthorpe Hasta La Muerte

The Extraordinary Journey of English Football's Spanish Pioneer

Beschreibung

Part biography, part social history, part meditation on what it is to be an outsider ultimately embraced by the introverted world of football, Scunthorpe hasta la muerte is a rare thing: a beautifully written account of the underbelly of English football and a masterpiece of sportswriting.
