This book provides an unprecedented insight into the world of the contemporary professional football manager. Drawing on a strong ethnographic approach, it explores the role, challenges and skills of the football manager in an increasingly commercialised and bureaucratic industry. It also examines how personal contact, networks, and the social mobility of different actors within the industry influence various elements of the manager's role.
