Publisher's Summary

After almost a quarter century as the BBC’s chief football correspondent, Mike Ingham, MBE, shares a candid, comprehensive, and sometimes, controversial account of how the world of broadcasting and football changed beyond recognition throughout his career.

His broadcasting experiences saw him attend eight World Cups, commentate on 28 F.A. Cup finals, work with 10 full-time England managers, introduce sports report, present his own music show on BBC Radio 1, and he even covered Princess Diana’s funeral. He has enjoyed working with a who’s who of personalities from the world of football and has tales to tell about all of them.

With never-before-heard material from Brian Clough, this audiobook is a timely reminder of England's campaigns in tournaments over the last half century with a detailed and eyewitness account of what the atmosphere was really like over the years behind the scenes in the England camp.

About the author: Mike Ingham, MBE , was the BBC’s chief football correspondent for almost a quarter of a century and only the third person to hold this post after Brian Moore and Bryon Butler. In a radio career of over 40 years, Mike attended eight World Cups, commentated on 28 F.A. Cup Finals and worked with 10 full time England managers.

Starting out as a DJ in a nightclub, music and football have been his twin obsessions, and often, the two worlds have bounced into each other as many of his musical heroes have also been football fans.

The start of his broadcasting career at BBC Radio Derby coincided with the glory years for Derby County with Brian Clough and Dave Mackay and his final commentary for the BBC was at the Maracanã Stadium‎ in Rio for the World Cup Final of 2014.

Shortly after his retirement, Mike became the first broadcaster to be given a Lifetime Achievement by the Sports Journalists Association.
