From Word of Sport:
When this behind-the-scenes account of Spurs' ultimately triumphant 1971/72 season was first published, it was justifiably acclaimed as the best football book yet written. Like all classics, it hasn't dated and although there are plenty of inferior imitations available, this first inside account is the best.
From the Critics:
“In 1973, Davies was granted unprecedented access to Spurs boss Bill Nicholson and his 19-man first-team pool..Davies book simply doesn't date. Printed in five different languages, and a big seller in the USA, 'The Glory Game' is rightly regarded as a classic. And remember that in an era of media trained stars and Fort Knox-style security at big clubs, there will never be a remake”

"There have only been three Cockers who have topped the UK singles chart. Jarvis and Joe from Sheffield, obviously, and Leeds United's erstwhile trainer, Les, with the 1970 World Cup song Back Home."
