Formato: Paperback
Football Mad ! is a modern satire of a very old sport ... Set in contemporary England after the English football team failed to qualify for the Euro Championship, Politicians, Punters and Parasites realise that English Football is inexorably dying. A Football Enquiry is launched at the request of the British Government to which agents, players, managers, league executives, journalists and the TV Networks are summoned to attend and give evidence. In parallel, pressure groups of dejected football supporters turned activists are organising protests with increasing ferocity, whilst football leagues and TV Networks fight it out to salvage profits and reputations. The story leads to Geneva and Hong Kong where, incongruously, those involved in the football money making machine resort to intriguing data fudging and other shenanigans to get their way. Uncontrollable events trigger the end of the gravy train for football profiteers and a re-birth of sporting ethos. The story evolves in seven parts, uses humour and satire throughout to reveal inescapable truths about the state of English football today.
