  • Overview

    The third and final part of the highly acclaimed The Smell of Football trilogy, bringing to life the day-to-day running of a professional football club.

    Mick ‘Baz’ Rathbone concludes his riveting football memoir with a 100-day diary starting in the early 2024/25 season. Once again, he brings us a unique insight into the world of professional football, this time through his role as a physio:

    • Written with humour and candour, the book demonstrates that incredibly fine line between winning and losing – the width of a goalpost or a referee’s decision – and the diametrically opposed emotions they bring
    • Takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride of emotions from the mundane yet fascinating day-to-day happenings of the medical team at a famous old League Two club, to the utter despair of a relentless losing streak and the pressure that comes with it
    • See the internal world of a professional football club through the eyes of the physio
    • Learn about Mick’s role and responsibility, and the pressure on him to provide the manager with the strongest team possible, week in and week out, as the demand for results increases exponentially across the season

    This book is for diehard fans who support their team unconditionally. It will show them just how much the players and officials really do care, and just how painful and emotionally draining defeat is. It is an honest account that draws on the author’s incredible 50 years in professional sport.
