This is the ultimate collection of sporting 'foot in mouth' moments - a sportsman or woman opens their mouth and immediately puts their foot in it with a (normally) well-meaning malapropism. There are more than 1,750 quotes on a wide range of sports from the classic "For those of you watching in black and white, Tottenham are in yellow," David Coleman, Match of the Day, to modern mouthed missteps, this is a book to keep you laughing inside and smiling outside. More than a dozen different sports have individual chapters devoted to them, with a catch-all chapter to cover the rest. If you enjoy the evidence that silence really might best golden when experts talk sport, then The Biggest Book of Talking Balls Ever! is simply perfect.
