  This one-man tour of all 92 Football League grounds begins as a paean to the beautiful game , but ends up as an analysis of the modern British male and sporting culture. The author finds the harsh realities of life on the stands enough to kill off his passion for football - almost. But instead of dissecting the pluses and minuses of the British game, he chooses to take a look at the reaction of the average man on the street to the approach of the new millennium: the state of the nation as seen from the football terraces.
