Product Description

John Motson's diary of the football season will start in Northampton in August 2003 and take him around all 92 English football league grounds before culminating with England's attempt to win Euro 2004 in Portugal. The BBC's Premiership football highlights programme Match of the Day returns to our screens this August with Motty as lead commentator. John Motson has been a member of the Match of the Day team for nearly 30 years and is regarded by many as the voice of football. He has covered well over 1,000 matches for the BBC. "Motty's Year" will publish immediately after the final of Euro 2004 and will provide the first account of the tournament in which Europe's elite international teams compete for a prize that is second only to the World Cup.

Eat My Goal!
A wonderful encapsulation of last season - from the first kick of the ball down in sunny Portsmouth to the shock win for Greece in Euro 2004. If it happened in football last season then Motty's got a comment about it. Beautifully paced, highly insightful, and not a little funny (though mostly unintentional it must be said), this is a must for your common or garden football nut job.
