About the Book

Football has an integrity problem. Whether it is the reckless behaviour of players on or off the pitch, television commentators bad-mouthing decisions during the game, or corrupt governance of the sport, football has a tarnished reputation. Big money means big public interest and an even bigger responsibility to make it a sport that is inclusive, professional and, at the very least, law-abiding. Dan Hough, long-time player, supporter and professor of corruption analysis, puts the game under the microscope to explain how football's integrity could be improved. He analyses the role of the players, managers and owners, the referees, the pundits and fans to unpick the issues at stake. Surprisingly, it is not just about the money sloshing around top-flight clubs, it is about the way the game is played, managed, governed and regulated that makes the sport's ethos what it is. It is time that it was tackled properly.

Table of Contents:
1. Football's integrity problem 2. Business versus community: the evolution of modern football 3. Getting to grips with integrity 4. Officiating the game 5. Playing the game 6. Watching the game 7. Which way now?

About the Author :
Dan Hough is Professor of Politics at the University of Sussex. A lifelong football fan, he spends most of his free time either watching Shrewsbury Town FC or playing for Ascot United.

Review :
Dan Hough’s excellent new book should strike a chord with all those involved in the beautiful game – we can and must improve the sport’s integrity both on and off the pitch – and he steers us in the right direction.
