Description
Starting and ending with a match that resulted in a 3-1 defeat for Tottenham Hotspur, but 60 years apart, 92 Grounds for Divorce? has tales of football travels that incorporate visits to each of the current 92 professional grounds, and more besides.
The aim is to raise funds for charities who exist to help the families of ex-footballers suffering brain damage caused by the very game we all love. This starts with Jeff Astle, whose case brought the issue to the attention of the footballing world. There are interviews with players and managers involved in some of the games, and comments from others who made the headlines from the 1960s onwards.
Dave takes readers beyond the 92, with highlights from Wembley, Scotland and Europe as he gives us a reminder of grounds we may have loved, but are now housing estates or shopping centres. The book starts with coverage of several West Bromwich Albion games, plus other Midlands teams, but gradually broadens out to be of interest to followers of football generally.
92 Grounds for Divorce? Maybe, but Dave has more than got away with it.
