Modern football is brilliant, and yet it is also utterly rubbish. For every part of the beautiful game that reminds us why we love it, there's another to drive us up the wall. Half-and-half scarves, designated singing sections, goal music and open letters - the list is endless. Football's Flaws & Foibles looks at some of the biggest transgressions and dissects just what lies at the heart of our annoyance. Featuring contributions from Kevin Day, Daniel Storey and more, this book provides moments of catharsis and debate in equal measure. If you've ever paid for a plane to fly a banner over a football ground then this may not be the book for you, but for the rest of us this is a place to wallow in collective frustrations.So if you have ever been irritated, enraged, aggravated or exasperated by the game you love, this book is very much for you.

This book explores the tradition of left wing political thinking in the culture of fans of professional football in Europe. It sets out to chronicle and celebrate the fraternal, communal and radical tradition of football - seen to best effect in demands for democratic fan ownership and control of clubs, in fan campaigns against racist and fascist mobilisation of football supporters, and in a firm commitment to anti-corporatism. Drawing on the rich and varied traditions of fan cultures across Europe, the book examines how football, as a cultural form, carries with it the possibility of promoting the voices of the disenfranchised and the marginalised, and so the basis for nurturing solidarity against oppression, alienation and exploitation current in modern capitalist society. This book was published as a special issue of Soccer and Society.

***THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*** From bestselling author and massively popular blogger The Unmumsy Mum comes this hilarious, irreverent and searingly candid compendium of parenting experiences. With entries including D is for Desperation, F is for Fish Fingers, S is for Supermum and V is for Vagina, it's safe to say this is not your average A-Z. This book won't tell you what sort of parent you should (or shouldn't) be; instead, it offers a refreshingly honest account of what being a mum to three young children is really like and the surprising lessons that have been learned along the way. If you feel as though you're not 'measuring up' or are struggling to #cherisheverymoment, Sarah's tales from the thick of it will reassure and resonate with you. Above all, her commitment to telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth will make you laugh out loud and remind you that you are, in fact, doing a great job. What readers are saying: 'For all parents out there, this is a must read.' 'Absolutely hilarious and so true to life. 100% recommend.' 'Makes me smile and actually keeps me sane as it is so easy to relate to.' 'It made me laugh (Sleeping through), it made me cry (Xmas) and it made me feel better about the times I think I'm getting it wrong.'

A very timely treatment of one of mankind s most important topics. Tyler Cowen, George Mason University, US This important and highly original book explores the application of economics to the subject of hate via such diverse topics as war, terrorism, road rage, witchcraft mania, marriage and divorce, and bullying and harassment. As yet there is no overall economic approach to hate; Samuel Cameron pioneers this work by using standard neo-classical economics concepts of the utility-maximizing consumer and the entrepreneur. He examines emotions as a form of personal capital and hate as a form of negative social capital , and investigates the idea of a modular matrix of hatred as the appropriate means of examining the subject. The likely form and scope of future effects of hate on government policy are also discussed. Seeking to explore the dimensions of hate as a commodity from a wider economic perspective, this exceptional book will prove a fascinating read for those with an interest in the economic value of hatred in particular, and the economics of the unusual more generally.

The A - Z of School Improvement is an authoritative 'can-do' guide to all aspects of improving schools, organised around the 26 letters of the English alphabet. School improvement is about getting every detail right. The serious school leader pays attention to every aspect of school life and focuses on improving it and aiming for excellence. One of the marks of the successful school leader is a forensic attention to detail. They will look closely and carefully at every aspect of a particular issue, analyse data, and only agree on interpretations after much consideration. While much of a school leader's work is relational, motivational, and relentless, bringing a forensic mindset to bear ensures that actions towards improvement are focused and thoughtful.

Meet Johnny Anonymous. No, that’s not his real name. But he is a real, honest-to-goodness pro football player. A member of the League. A slave, if you will, to the NFL. For the millions of you out there who wouldn’t know what to do on Sundays if there wasn’t football, who can’t imagine life without the crunch of helmets ringing in your ears, or who look forward to the Super Bowl more than your birthday, Johnny Anonymous decided to tell his story. Written during the 2014–2015 season, this is a year in the life of the National Football League. This is a year in the life of a player—not a marquee name, but a guy on the roster—gutting it out through training camp up to the end of the season, wondering every minute if he’s going to get playing time or get cut. Do you want to know how players destroy their bodies and their colons to make weight? Do you wonder what kind of class and racial divides really exist in NFL locker rooms? Do you want to know what NFL players and teams really think about gay athletes or how the League is really dealing with crime and violence against women by its own players? Do you wonder about the psychological warfare between players and coaches on and off the field? About how much time players spend on Tinder or sexting when not on the field? About how star players degrade or humiliate second- and third-string players? What players do about the headaches and memory loss that appear after every single game? This book will tell you all of this and so much more. Johnny Anonymous holds nothing back in this whip-smart commentary that only an insider, and a current player, could bring. Part truth-telling personal narrative, part darkly funny exposé, NFL Confidential gives football fans a look into a world they’d give anything to see, and nonfans a wild ride through the strange, quirky, and sometimes disturbing realities of America’s favorite game. Here is a truly unaffiliated look at the business, guts, and glory of the game, all from the perspective of an underdog who surprises everyone—especially himself. JOHNNY ANONYMOUS is a four-year offensive lineman for the NFL. Under another pseudonym, he’s also a contributor for the comedy powerhouse Funny Or Die. You can pretty much break NFL players down into three categories. Twenty percent do it because they’re true believers. They’re smart enough to do something else if they wanted, and the money is nice and all, but really they just love football. They love it, they live it, they believe in it, it’s their creed. They would be nothing without it. Hell, they’d probably pay the League to play if they had to! These guys are obviously psychotic. Thirty percent of them do it just for the money. So they could do something else—sales, desk jockey, accountant, whatever—but they play football because the money is just so damn good. And it is good. And last of all, 49.99 percent play football because, frankly, it’s the only thing they know how to do. Even if they wanted to do something “normal,” they couldn’t. All they’ve ever done in their lives is play football—it was their way out, either of the hood or the deep woods country. They need football. If football didn’t exist, they’d be homeless, in a gang, or maybe in prison. Then there’s me. I’m part of my own little weird minority, that final 0.01 percent. We’re such a minority, we don’t even count as a category. We’re the professional football players who flat-out hate professional football.

Roy Lilley, creator of the best selling Tool Kit series for the NHS, has produced his personal A-Z of management topics. It covers key issues for today's managers to think about and act upon. The author takes the 26 letters of the alphabet and matches them to practical ideas for managers facing the challenges of change and the pressures of expectations. Each word he has chosen for his 'alphabet' encapsulates and describes a management style or achievement, or perhaps habits or routines, that have impressed him. They are words that describe the extra 'thing' that made a manager stand out, sparkle, seem different from the rest. Each idea is presented with hazard warnings, thinking-issues and exercises, for personal development and organisational improvement. This book is for any manager in healthcare, whether just starting out or a seasoned professional. Clinical directors, general practitioners, practice managers, managers in newly formed Primary Care Trusts and elsewhere in the NHS, and managers in the professions and trades that support and sell to the health service, will all find the book stimulating, informative and practical.

A - Z of Teaching provides an informative, engaging and accessible introduction to the art and craft of teaching, introducing you to a range of essential topics alongside some of the key ideas and key thinkers from the educational research literature. The topics covered range from practical teaching advice on areas such as questioning to exploration of significant themes within education such as creativity. Each entry includes: An introduction to the topic with a definition of the term An exploration of key ideas within the topic Reference to the work of key thinkers who have explored the topic in the educational literature How these ideas apply in your day-to-day practice of teaching and learning A set of questions for you to consider as you seek to develop your pedagogy in a particular topic area Further reading and references, including links to relevant writings in other publications or online sources Teaching is a broad and complex activity so whether you are thinking about becoming a teacher, training to be a teacher, or a qualified teacher wishing to keep abreast of the latest thinking in the field, the ideas contained in this book will prove helpful and constructive as you seek to develop your teaching skills. "Every so often, a new idea unfolds that seems so deceptively simple that one wonders why it hasn't appeared before now: this is the case with A - Z of Teaching. Serving as a high-definition map of classroom teaching, it provides mentorship for survival and thriving in the profession. Comprehensive without being laboured, rich in concepts without succumbing to clutter, ingeniously economic in the identification of key themes without being trifling, Savage and Fautley manage to distil the important and inspiring from vast amounts of theory, research and practical experience of teaching, and present the essential elements in a most accessible manner for early career teachers. More experienced educators will also find many gems to renew and inspire their practice. The approach is pragmatic whilst never seeking to trivialise the challenges of teaching or the vast amounts of extant theories. Most importantly, the reflective questions at the end of each section serve to provoke further thinking, research and action, thus contributing meaningfully to the development of effective and reflective teachers for contemporary schools." Regina Murphy, PhD, Senior Lecturer, St Patrick's College, Dublin City University, Ireland "The construction of this book is very satisfying; it is so straightforward to access and simultaneously works at so many levels. Using the tried and tested structure of an A to Z listing, Jonathan Savage and Martin Fautley consider a number of highly significant aspects of education, pedagogy, and professional issues for teachers at all stages of their professional development. In their consideration of some 103 topics, they skilfully blend key theoretical underpinning with current practice in the classroom, making this book extremely useable by teachers in all sectors and age-phases. The range of topics makes this especially useful because it covers some big issues but also explores some less frequently covered things such as audience and elicitation. What I have found particularly helpful is the fact that, in this book, I readily recognise aspects of my own classroom practice in the overview of each topic, but I am encouraged and inspired to reflect more deeply on my professional development in the light of the collected wisdom and challenging questions. This book will be an invaluable tool for training and beginning teachers as well as for those with years of experience. The inclusion of key questions and further reading means that it can serve as a very accessible reference book, an aide memoir or as a stimulus for more detailed debate, discussion or professional development. Consequently it will support the work of individuals, department or phase teams or even larger groups. The potential to individualise training and coaching by referring trainees to relevant entries is great. I will certainly want to use it when working with trainee teachers and also with teachers undertaking CPD and Masters qualifications. I look forward to Volume 2 appearing in the future." Simon Spencer, Birmingham City University, UK "I am delighted to welcome this brief but important compendium of the A - Z of Teaching written by Jonathan Savage and Martin Fautley, authors with extensive experience of teaching. This book provides eloquent insights and distilled definitions of key terms and concepts in an introductory way that will inform, inspire, engage and help navigate through the maze of key terms which busy students in initial teacher education and practising teachers simply must read." Pamela Burnard, Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge, UK "This is a very entertaining and well-structured resource, written in easy and accessible language. It contains a serious, carefully referenced introduction to a number of major issues encountered in the early stages of learning to teach. It will be equally useful for beginners or experienced teachers and mentors, as it gives practical guidance about some of the areas for discussion, coaching and assistance which commonly arise when learning to teach." Professor Janet Hoskyns, Head of School: Education, Birmingham City University, UK
