Inhaltsangabe

The F.A. Cup is not only Britain's premier soccer knockout competition, but also one of the most important sporting trophies in the world, with a long and fascinating history and an unmatched record of enthralling matches, amazing upsets, and intense drama. This book covers the full history of the F.A. Cup from its early days through to 2005, from the famous iconic spectacle of the white police horse controlling the crowds surging onto the Wembley pitch, through Bert Trautmann's broken neck while goalkeeping in the final for Manchester City, to the recent domination of Manchester United and Arsenal. But it also covers all the giantkilling, from Ronnie Radford's amazing goal for Hereford to Shrewsbury knocking out Everton and lowly Exeter holding Manchester United to a draw in the amphitheatre of Old Trafford. Matching enthralling narrative to exhaustive results tables and statistics, this is the essential accessory for every armchair spectator.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Guy Lloyd's career has taken a path through record retailing to book and music publishing. He is the co-author, with Nick Holt, of Football: The Beautiful Game (Flame Tree Publishing, 2002), which has sold over 50,000 copies. Guy is a Chelsea supporter but stresses that this has been the case since 1971. He lives in Shepherd's Bush, West London. Nick Holt was born and raised in Bolton and remains a follower of the one and only Wanderers. A wide player in the John Robertson mould, he conformed to the Seventles stereotype of good living, which nipped a non-existent footballing career in the bud. After more than twenty years in the book trade, he is pursuing a writing career and is already widely published in sport and film. He lives near Banbury with wife Emma and four large dogs.
