In this book which is part of a series conveying information on a variety of subjects in the style of popular youth magazines, an account is given of the football industry from the "top" - the players and managers who bring glamour to the sport - to the backroom staff who deal with administration and match preparation, through to the "bottom" - the non-professional players and the fans whose loyalty and money provide the backbone of the entire industry. The book uses the experiences of characters like Trevor Brooking and Elton John to provide a factual inside view of the sport. David Payne is Eastern Region football coordinator at the Sports Council and a coach at Peterborough United FC.
