Jim Murphy is the Labour MP for East Renfrewshire and currently the shadow Secretary of State for International Development. He is a keen footballer and an average golfer.
"It is a book about football and politics - it's not about England winning the World Cup in 1966. It is about social history." Sunday Express " This is a really fascinating book." Kenny Dalglish "In all my time as Prime Minister I was never in any doubt about the importance of football. Wherever I went, people wanted to talk about it. This book tells the stories of the links between football and some of the big world events." Tony Blair " It's quite obviously a work of passion and we should welcome attempts to shine a light on the hinterlands of our political representatives - Murphy successfully brings together his own passion for the game, a strong argument and good writing." Scottish Review of Books
