About this product

Product Information

Everyone loves an FA Cup giant-killing: a smug Premier League team being knocked out by the plucky underdogs. In these days of oligarch owners, superstar managers and players on sky-high wages, the tide is turning against the big teams as fans search for football with a soul.Enter non-league football - the heartland of the beautiful game. Nige Tassell spends a season following top dogs Tranmere Rovers as they attempt to get back into the Football League, and inhabitants of the 'bottom corner' Bishop Sutton, who are just trying to get eleven men on a pitch. He tells the stories of this corner of society - the internationals playing eighth-tier football, the agony and the ecstasy of a Cup run, and the volunteers who keep the sport going. Filled with interviews with the players, the managers, the owners, the volunteers taking tickets and running the hot-dog stand, and the fans who turn up every Saturday, The Bottom Corner is a fascinating insight into the win-or-die drama of non-league football.

Reviews
"Not since The Football Man has a book so captured the passion of the game. The Bottom Corner is a wonderful journey through life in the lower reaches of the football pyramid. A fascinating tale of a very different world of football from that of the overpaid stars of the television age." --Barry Davies, "An entertaining exploration of the quirks, commitment and romance of football away from the pumped-up bluster of the top flight." --Ed Wilson, When Saturday Comes, "Warm and celebratory but also sharp and insightful, The Bottom Corner is a love letter to non-league football that is also a vivid snapshot of its place in our national life." --Stuart Maconie, Warm and celebratory but also sharp and insightful , The Bottom Corner is a love letter to non-league football that is also a vivid snapshot of its place in our national life
