?Buku ini membuktikan bahwa sepakbola itu seru dan asyik!Bukan hanya permainannya, melainkan juga drama dan kegilaan yang dilakukan oleh para pelakon lapangan hijau.? ?Donna Agnesia, presenter acara olahraga Masih ingat peristiwa ?tandukan maut? Zidane kepada Materazzi? Merujuk pada aturan sepakbola, tindakan brutal itu jelas tidak bisa ditoleransi. Kartu merah pun dihadiahkan wasit kepada Zidane, sementara Materazzi terkapar kesakitan. Belakangan, ketika terkuak bahwa perkataan rasis dan keji yang dilontarkan bek Italia itu kepada Zidane-lah yang menjadi pemicu tandukan itu, publik sepakbola berbalik mendukung Zidane dan mencaci-maki Materazzi, menjadikannya salah satu ?penjahat? paling dimusuhi dalam sejarah Piala Dunia. Buku ini merangkum kisah-kisah seru orang-orang yang paling dimusuhi rakyat sepakbola dalam sejarah Piala Dunia. Maradona, sebagai pemain, pernah dibenci habis oleh mereka yang setia kepada fair play karena sukses mencetak gol dengan tangannya tanpa ketahuan wasit. Sebagai pelatih timnas Argentina pada Piala Dunia 2010 pun, kreator ?Gol Tangan Tuhan? itu dibenci banyak rakyat Argentina sendiri karena dianggap melatih tim negeri tango itu dengan tak becus sehingga sempoyongan untuk maju ke Afrika Selatan. Masih banyak lagi kisah seru tentang para ?penjahat? dalam buku ini: tentang Ronaldinho, David Beckham, David Ginola, Thierry Henry, dan dua wartawan Italia tak berperasaan yang menyebabkan hubungan Chile-Italia berantakan dan melahirkan pertandingan sepakbola paling brutal sepanjang zaman! Jangan ngaku gila bola kalau tak tahu apa-apa tentang para ?penjahat? dalam sejarah Piala Dunia! ?Kisah-kisah yang menggetarkan lapangan hijau. Mengungkapkan sisi lain dari sepakbola. Buku ini mendekati sepakbola dengan cara yang humanis dan mencerahkan pengetahuan bola kita.? ?Tommy Welly, Wartawan dan Komentator Sepakbola [Mizan, Bentang, Pustaka, Biography, Biografi, Indonesia]

Aston Villa is one of the biggest and best-supported football clubs in Britain, the giant from England's second city with a long and distinguished history, culminating in an unforgettable European Cup victory in 1982. The story of their terrace army, however, has never been told - until now. Like all major clubs, Villa have had their hooligans and hardmen, and have been involved in some of the fiercest battles of the past four decades. VILLAINS traces their gangs from the 1960's up to the present day. Through first-person testimony, it reveals for the first time the antics of the Steamers, who achieved nationwide infamy, led by a band of colourful and fearless characters such as Pete the Greek, who famously once headbutted a police horse and took on the Millwall leader in a one-on-one brawl. Eventually they were superseded by the C Crew, a multi-racial gang who brought together youths from different areas of Birmingham during the 2-Tone era. This was the heyday of hooliganism, and the Villa Park faithful clashed with the toughest and most violent mobs around, often led into battle by co-authors Paul Brittle and "Black" Danny Brown, who was jailed in 1981 for one of the most infamous football-related attacks. They went on riotous trips to Europe, fought at service stations and in nightclubs, and conducted bitter rivalries against foes from across the Midlands and beyond. The story is brought up to date with tales of the Villa Youth and accounts of the notorious Battle of McDonalds Island against their Birmingham City rivals the Zulus.

This book explores how recent football fiction has negotiated the decisive political developments in English football after the 1989/90 publication of the 'Taylor Report'. A direct response to the 1989 Hillsborough Disaster and growing concerns of hooliganism, the 'Taylor Report' suggested a number of measures for stricter regulation of fan crowds. In consequence, stadiums in the top divisions were turned into all-seated venues and were put under CCTV surveillance. The implementation of these measures reduced violent incidents drastically, but it also led to an unparalleled increase in ticket prices, which in turn significantly altered the demographics of the crowd. This development, which also enabled football's entry into other mainstream cultural forms, changed the game decisively. Piskurek traces patterns across prose and film to detect how these fictions have responded to the changed circumstances of post-Taylor football. Lending a cultural lens to these political changes, this book is pioneering in its analysis of football fiction as a whole, offering a fresh perspective to a range of scholars and students interested in cultural studies, sociology, leisure and politics.

This book presents a critical portrait of the British police through a detailed ethnography of their work at football matches. Megan O'Neill not only sheds light on a topic of intense media interest, football hooliganism, but also presents the police in a totally fresh perspective. By using the work of Erving Goffman, she demonstrates how the police are a far from unified force. Their informal interaction 'teams' divide them operationally and socially.

Like most kids back in the day, Don dreamt of being a professional footballer and scoring the winning goal at Wembley. Unfortunately for Don, he was not much good at football. He grew up in Manchester in the fifties and sixties, and even joining the Royal Navy in the late sixties did not dampen his passion or enthusiasm for the game. Don founded one of the largest football supporters branches in the country and was chairman of it for ten years. This is a gripping account and a humorous look back at his time in the Royal Navy and the supporters branch meetings including sportsmens dinners, and charity events he organised with some of the top names in British football. Celebrity guests included Kevin Keegan, Nick Leeson, and Francis Lee. He also recounts some of the hilarious away trips he organized. It is a real life supporters story that will appeal to all football fans.

Society played a part in the death of my baby brother. The demand for perfection and what was deemed acceptable by our everyday standards helped mold a fragile frame in a young man's mind. The security and resolution I needed was never to be found within the realms of the everyday working world. I learned to reconcile with what you may unfairly call the "ills of society". I found not only resolve, but also harmony within the world, a world that all members of our populace are exposed to in their lives and is part of a culture, even if you chose to ignore it, is one we all live in. I'm not only lucky enough, but also privileged to have been welcomed and accepted in this world, and here their stories will show that this syndicate are of the same making of us all. For me and my brothers none of our heroes wore capes.

The first major league baseball game to take place at what is now called Wrigley Field occurred on April 23, 1914, on 4,000 yards of soil and four acres of bluegrass. Though the area may have shrunk, Chicago’s love for the iconic Wrigley Field has only grown in the past century. In honor of the legendary ballpark's 100th birthday, the Chicago Tribune staff has compiled a breathtaking tribute to Wrigley Field, including historical photos, archival articles, and new content from the newspaper's award-winning journalists. Beyond the Ivy: 100 Years of Wrigley Field is a beautifully illustrated collection that captures the timeless charm of the "Friendly Confines." With contributions from beloved Chicago Tribune writers like Mike Royko, Christopher Borrelli, Paul Sullivan, Phil Vettel, and more, this book is a dazzling celebration of a national landmark and the gem of Chicago's north side. Stories of homers and blunders, heroes and villains, and triumph and tragedy are spread throughout this book, allowing readers to relive all their favorite memories right in the palm of their hands. From the time the plot of land bound by the streets Clark, Addison, Sheffield, and Waveland was the Chicago Lutheran Theological Seminary, to the construction of Weeghman Park and its renaming as Wrigley Field, this stadium has not only hosted baseball, football, and hockey, but also a century's worth of ever-changing trends in music, food, and fashion. Readers can finally join in on Wrigley's centennial celebration with this entertaining and fascinating book detailing what may very well be Chicago’s greatest contribution to baseball. Beyond the Ivy, in tracing the roots of Major League Baseball's second oldest ballpark, has created a testament that—much like the cherished construction it profiles—will surely stand the test of time.
