A passionate and personal account of how football has lost its soul by former player and leading pundit, Gary Neville.

The beautiful game is under threat. The greed and selfishness of the biggest clubs is harming the game—leaving other clubs struggling for financial survival and supporters behind.

It's time to fix football.

Football is the people's game. A sport accessible to everyone and enjoyed by millions around the world. But football is broken. Beneath the glamorous sheen of the Premier League, it's a game that's rusting and rotten. The growing influence and wealth of the biggest teams is harming the game, leaving fans out of pocket and other clubs clinging to survival. This isn't what football is about.

Gary Neville has had a front-row seat in football for over 30 years, witnessing the sport at every level—as a player, a coach, a pundit and an owner. Most of all, he's a fan.

The People's Game is Gary's vision for a brighter future. Drawing on interviews with those at the epicentre of the sport's biggest issues—from the role of ownership to the lack of funding in the football league, the rise in racism and the future of the women's game—he explains how football has sleepwalked into this mess and offers a new way forward. With stories from his own playing career, as well as insight into some of the biggest footballing decisions in recent history, this is a total look at the game today.

This is a passionate, personal and critical account of how football lost its soul, and what we can do to get it back.

This was not easy book to finish. I like Gary Neville and I know his heart is in the right place, but this is poorly written, poorly narrated, and poorly structured.

Terrible
