Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Adam Hurrey is a football writer and editor at The Athletic, and the creator and host of the Football Clichés podcast. He also had trials for Swindon Town as a youngster, but was genuinely rejected for being 'too small'.
Von der hinteren Coverseite
Longlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award
A New Statesman Book of the Year
A Sunday Times Sports Book of the Year
Does language evolve? Yes, it does. Will it ever be acceptable for a football commentator to call a shot that bounces before it goes in 'a screamer'? No, it will not.
As the self-appointed world expert on the subject, Adam Hurrey sets off to define the definitive rules of the language of football. Along the way, Hurrey examines case studies of how the football media has reached saturation point and how its language has evolved to keep the machine going.
Have we let the football lexicon spiral out of control? In finding out, this book will be exactly as gloriously pedantic as it sounds.
