Infos

Theres something special about cup football, and Dan Walker has had a privileged seat for some of footballs greatest knockout dramas, getting close to the action in World Cups and FA Cups. Who wouldnt want to play a knockabout game of beach football on Copacabana beach with Clarence Seedorf? But there have also been moments when things havent quite gone according to plan, as when he rubbed out the names on Wrexhams honours board live on Football Focus, or when he was halfway up the famous Wembley arch on FA Cup final day, only to be interrupted by his mum ringing him up to ask what he wanted for his tea. Dans own personal highlights reel are a jumping-off point for some of the funniest and most bizarre football stories of cup success and failure, from the most outrageous dressing-room dust-ups to Maradonas greatest rants. Then theres those moments that show footballers in a new light, such as Ipswich Towns Paul Anderson, who paid to repair a fans ceiling after the fan punched a hole in it when celebrating a vital goal scored by Anderson. Packed with brilliant photographs, and told in Dans unique style, the book also features a collection of his hugely popular team line-ups to make this the perfect gift for football fans everywhere.
