Description

Captures the illogical romance of the sport NEW STATESMANEver wondered what it would be like to run your local football club?On the second oldest football pitch in the world, Jonathan Sayer stands atop a beer crate to address the assembled fans. As his initial optimism begins to slip through his fingers, the new chairman of Ashton United starts to realize the scale of the challenge ahead.With a fanled mutiny on his hands, a star striker on crutches, and a record number of games without a win, Jonathan is forced to make a series of increasingly desperate decisions from sinking his life savings into an everspiralling wage bill to inviting a local priest to perform a latenight exorcism on the pitch.Chronicling the euphoric highs and bitter disappointments of the less glamourous side of the beautiful game, Nowhere to Run is the hilarious, heartwarming tale of life in the hot seat of a nonleague football club.A glorious chronicle of memorable highs, bitter disappointments and neverending billsMIRROR
