Description
From the FA Cup to the World Cup, Football Extreme is packed with bizarre facts and figures, amazing stories and incredible footballing feats. Discover how a bald 57-year-old ended up playing for Doncaster Rovers, how a remote island manages to sustain a league and cup competition with the grand total of two teams, and how Blyth Spartans went on the greatest Cup run of any non-league side - only to be thwarted by a collapsing corner flag. Amaze your friends with tales of 31-0 wins, tiny pitches and woeful attendance figures. And learn all about the weird and wonderful events that make football the greatest game on Earth.
