"If there is an apology, it must be coming by horseback" Arsène WengerWhen Arsenal's po-faced manager made his wry comment at Alex Ferguson's claim he had sent an apology after his off-the-record comments were published about how Arsenal turned games into battles, nobody would be surprised at the acerbic attitude of Wenger's Manchester Utd rival.
If you want to relive this and many, many more equally amusing and famous comments or simply hear them for the first time, the latest edition of The Book of Football Quotations is a great place to kick off.
Packed with amusing, touching and sometimes downright ignorant comments ("The only place for women in football is making the tea at half-time." --Rodney Marsh, former England player) the book will provide you with far more than the usual 90 minutes of entertainment.
Making no pretence at political correctness, ("I shook his hand. That hand's been on so many pairs of boobs." --Gazza on meeting Sean Connery) Phil Shaw's collection of gems will have you laughing out loud long before the final whistle. Most of the big names are represented in one form or another, as are a few of the newer faces to grace the pitch:
"I'll be in trouble with my girlfriend if I'm picked--I don't think she'll be too happy to hear I've been chasing Totti around Rome" --Jonathon Woodgate, teenage Leeds Utd defender, on the prospect of facing Roma striker Francesco Totti, 1998.Great for any footie fan, this is a book that will regularly have you running into extra time! --Lucie Naylor
