Football Lexicon by David Woodhouse
Why is a left foot either trusty or educated, but a right foot is neither? Why is a bad back pass almost invariably suicidal? Why can you score from a corner with a free header, but never with a free shot? Why are hooligans always a tiny minority even when there seem to be hundreds of them?
"'For the first time - the complete lexicon of football cliches' The Times; 'Absolutely brilliant... There are fascinating questions raised as well as many hugely entertaining cheap shots.' Adrian Chiles 'The boys done terrific. A work of genius.' Martin Kelner; 'This book is pure kwolity. And I mean kwolity with a capital K.' Graham Spier"
Leigh is a Sheffield Wednesday fan. Woodhouse supports Aston Villa.
