As former England striker and television pundit Jimmy Greaves famously said, football is 'a funny old game'.

Hundreds of silly stories and priceless nuggets have been sources that collectively recreate the unique excitement, drama and unpredictability of football in the words of the sport's practitioners. The result is a wry, idiosyncratic and sometimes bizarre catalogue of comic creations. For lovers of the absurd, outrageous and totally bizarre, this selection of stories and quotes will amuse and delight. Packed with timeless quotes and priceless gaffes from the likes of David Beckham ('My parents have been there for me since I was about seven'), Bobby Robson ('We didn't underestimate them; they were just a lot better than we thought') and Paul Gascoigne ('I've never made any predictions about anything and I never will'), this hilarious collection is guaranteed to tickle the funny bone of even the most casual sports fan.
