The Big Book of Football's Funniest Quotes by Iain Spragg

No one can dispute that football has provided some of the funniest quotes (intentionally or not) in the history of sport - and The Big Book of Football's Funniest Quotes is the most comprehensive collection of these hilarious comic offerings.

Compiled by avid quotation collectors Ian Spragg, Adrian Clarke and Stuart Reeves, The Big Book of Football's Funniest Quotes has been fully revised and updated with 150 new observations and remains packed with an incredible 1,500 ridiculous quotes from and about some the most famous names in football, including Sir Alex Ferguson, Jose Mourinho, Ian Holloway, Paul Gascoigne and Eric Cantona.

Bursting with confused cliches, mangled metaphors, comic cusses and idiotic football insights, this book really is the hilarious last word in funny football quotations.
