Description

The Great Uncrowned Football Most Celebrated Losers by Neil Jensen is a fascinating look at football's ultimate bridesmaids - teams that were good enough to win major prizes but didn't. This book celebrates the clubs that fell short due to bad luck, limited resources or outstanding opponents. From early 20th-century runners-up in Lancashire and Wales to flamboyant European and South American teams, The Great Uncrowned reveals the stories of near-misses from around the world. It also provides context on the development and social position of each side, asking if football needs a structure that produces more winners and fewer losers. By reviving the exploits of great players and impressive teams, this book sheds new light on the history of football's most celebrated losers.
