The beautiful game is over : the globalisation of football

Samuels, J. M. (John Malcolm), 1938-2008
Books, Manuscripts
Football has moved from being a local sport, with success based on gate receipts and good leadership, to being a global sport based on TV ratings, sponsorship and lots of money. While a few teams dominate, many more have missed out. This book analyses how global finance has spoiled the game, and argues for change.
