*OUT NOW* THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Neville at his authentic best. [He] is the closest thing
to a spokesman there is for English football.' Sunday Times 'Brilliant.' Mail on Sunday 'Gary
Neville usually talks a lot of sense and writes it too . . . Neville's words are timely.'
Henry Winter The Times 'The People's Game is [Gary's] call to mend football harmed by the
greed and selfishness of bigger clubs and associations.' Radio Times __________ The beautiful
game is under threat. The greed and selfishness of the biggest clubs is harming the sport with
smaller clubs struggling for financial survival and supporters being left behind. It's time to
fix football. __________ Football is the people's game. A sport accessible to everyone and
enjoyed by millions around the world. But football is broken. Beneath the glamourous sheen of
the Premier League it's a game that's rusting and rotten. The growing influence and wealth of
the biggest teams is harming the game leaving fans out of pocket and smaller clubs clinging to
survival. The European Super League which looked to eradicate competition in favour of
guaranteed profits was just the beginning. This isn't what football is about. Something's got
to change. Enough is enough. Gary Neville has had a front-row seat in football for over 30
years witnessing the sport at every level - as a player a coach a pundit and an owner. Most
of all he's a fan. Shocked by the state of the game Gary looks to find out how we got into
this mess who's responsible and what we can do about it. The People's Game is Gary's vision
for a brighter future. Drawing on interviews with those at the epicentre of the sport's biggest
issues - from the role of ownership to the lack of funding in the football league the rise in
racism ownership models and the future of the women's game - he explains how football has
sleepwalked into this mess and offers a new path forward. With stories from his own playing
career as well as insight into some of the biggest footballing decisions in recent history
this is a total look at the game today. This is a passionate personal and critical account of
how football lost its soul and what we can do to get it back. __________
