Is he a hooligan? An ignoramus? A layabout? Or just an ordinary harmless fellow who goes berserk on Saturdays?
Reporter Harold Williamson himself a fervent fan-follows in the footsteps of literary figures like Arnold Bennett and J. B. Priestley who found the football crowd a fascination.
He visits grounds big and small.... listens to the cheers, rattles, and humour ... talks to the supporters ... and finds some surprising people in the crowd, including Arthur Askey, George Woodcock, and the Archdeacon of Westminster.
