RRP: £9.99
Online shop price: £6.49
Illustrated miscellany-style England football trivia book, the perfect companion to the exciting months of World Cup build-up ahead.
Packed with amazing facts and figures, quotes, anecdotes, lists and tables, The England compendium is superbly illustrated by former Roy of the Rovers cartoonist Bob Bond. It randomly crams in every England result, England's complete World Cup history, the illustrated history of the England kit, the legends from Bobby Moore to Gazza, the glorious victories and the tragic penalty shoot-out defeats!
More than that, The England compendium takes a sideways glance at the country which invented football, from the worst haircuts ever to make the England squad to the dog who found the World Cup under a bush in 1966.
