It's not about the game anymore. The beautiful game. The beauty of it has been torn out in the pursuit of riches. The game now is money.
This debut novel from journalist Vincent Kelly charts the selling of the soul of football. How a combination of greed, media manipulation, and grubby backdoor deals have tainted what used to be known as the people's game.
This debut novel from journalist Vincent Kelly charts the selling of the soul of football. How a combination of greed, media manipulation, and grubby backdoor deals have tainted what used to be known as the people's game.
Told through the tragedy of a legendary terrace hero, Dreadnought is a page-turning thriller that reveals a murky world where what happens in the 90 minutes of the match is incidental to the high-stakes business of football.
