important factor.
On presenting the Publisher’s with the draft copy late 2017, it was decided it might be better

this book might have seemed somewhat negative in its format. However, after yet another
disappointing tournament it was decided that this book needed to be presented to the general
football public to establish a ‘true picture ’of the rights and wrongs with our game.
