Patrick Marber

Published by Faber & Faber

3 Male 0 Female

Small time semi-pro football

Non-league

A world away from the wealth and the television cameras

A young player touched with brilliance arrives from nowhere

An ambitious manager determines to make him his own

And the old soul of the club still has dreams of glory ...

This is a haunting and humorous play about the dying romance of the great English game

And the tender, savage love that powers it
