Review:
"Still the definitive football text . . . this book is indispensable" * FourFourTwo * "The Glory Game engages the mind while revealing the soul of the beautiful game" * The Herald * "Brilliant, anthropological account of life with Tottenham in 1973, before there were press officers and brand managers" -- David Goldblatt, author of the World Football Yearbook
