Only a Game?: The Diary of a Professional Footballer
Autor Eamon Dunphyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 1987
"The best book about football I have read by someone who has actually played the game...everyone who has ever dreamt of a sporting career should read it" - Nick Hornby
The season began so well for the Republic of Ireland international midfielder Eamon Dunphy at Millwall - and ended in disillusionment and being on the transfer list. In this classic memoir, he charts the progress of the team during a season that begins with such high hopes and is filled throughout with high drama. Populated with extraordinary characters - and with access to the dressing room that would be impossible today -Only a Game?is both a riveting read and an exceptional insight into professional sport.
"It remains both greatly admired and unmatched." - Richard Williams,The Guardian
"The best and most authentic memoir by a professional footballer" - Brian Glanville
"Exceptional. It became the standard by which similar books were judged, and was exceeded in acclaim only with the publication ofFever Pitchby Nick Hornby more than a decade later." -The Times
