The Theater of Silence by Mattew Bazell is a book about the demise off football,all seater stadiums and the amount of corporate seating and prawn sandwich's that is in today's football, Although some of his in-book jokes are bad, I reckon this book if taken seriously is quite good it takes note of a few things that is wrong with the current game, And I good point is Banning Orders and how they are generally being thrown about and are effecting normal-matching going fans.
He also goes into detail about how he has fallen out of love with his club - Arsenal FC and how it is not the club that he once loved and how it has changed and how he has found football that he loves again - at Millwall FC.
This book I found could have made a few more points in it more serious and the writing could have been touched up a bit,But overall a good read.
