THE PEOPLE'S GAME

The People’s Game

A View from a Front Seat in Football

Gary Neville

The beautiful game is under threat. The greed and selfishness of the biggest clubs is harming the sport, with smaller clubs struggling for financial survival and supporters being left behind. It’s time to fix football.

The People’s Game is a passionate, personal and critical account of how football lost its soul, and what we can do to get it back.
