<p><b><i>From the award-winning author of NO HUNGER IN PARADISE</i></b><br><b><br>Outside the global spotlight, footballers don''t drive Aston Martins or pose for underwear ads. This is war. This is life. This is football.</b><br><br>Michael Calvin turned up for the first day of pre-season training at Millwall FC. 333 days later, he sat among the subs at Wembley.<br><br>Over the course of a season, he witnessed the intimate everyday life of a football club far from the glitz and glamour of the Premier League, and the unique characters that come together every day on the field.<br><br> These are dedicated, hard-working family men, close to their roots, <i>''playing for the people who hate their jobs, who''d love our lives.''</i><br><br> Forget about the over-hyped circus of the Premier League. This is the beautiful game in all its raucous glory: essential reading for anyone whom football is a way of life.</p>
