  An audiobook like no other from one of the beautiful game’s most charismatic managers 
   
  “From eccentric kit men to ghosts. From tea ladies to cats and dogs. From UFOs to moments in football that I will never forget – or in some cases live down…” 
   
  Nobody does offbeat like Ian Holloway – known to one and all in football as ‘Ollie’. 
   
  He has been dubbed as ‘inspirational’ by those who played for him, a ‘genius’ by those who owned the clubs he managed and made huge profits for, and a loveable rogue by football fans in general. 
   
  Now, he turns that wisdom, passion for the game – and occasional feistiness – into a reflection of football that only he could provide. 
   
  With over 100 topics covering everything from VAR to the Saudi Pro League – from FFP to man-buns, mullets, playing from the back, pundits, the penchant for employing German 
   
  youth coaches nobody has heard of, plus American ownership, The (mostly) Football World According to Ollie is a one-stop shop to the bonkers world of football and so much more. 
   
  Add in the odd curveball of fishing, dad dancing, karaoke and his genuine love of women’s football and you have the perfect read or gift for any football fan.

  'Bravura on the ground reporting'David Goldblatt, award-winning author of The Ball is Round'This is an important book'Simon Kuper, bestselling author of Soccernomics, Chums and Barça'Compelling'The Times'A subtle examination of the complex interplay between global ambition, economic power, and ethical considerations'MoneyWeek_________In 2034, Saudi Arabia will host the men's FIFA World Cup and mark the culmination of Mohammed bin Salman's ambitious plan to modernise Saudi Arabia, a kingdom of unfathomable wealth at the heart of the Islamic world, which is only now emerging from nearly a century of self-isolation. How did we get here? Why would a country spend tens of billions of dollars, perhaps even hundreds of billions in the long run, to buy and control sport?Engulfed is a story about ambition, family rivalries, extreme wealth, power, murder and disinformation. It is also the story of dictatorship, political corruption and, at its root, how sport - football, yes, but also golf, boxing and even e-sports - became a vital geopolitical tool for Saudi Arabia.Drawing on Montague's exclusive first-hand interviews from his extensive travels across Saudi Arabia, the US, the north-east of England, Spain, Turkey and beyond, Engulfed uncovers how the House of Saud zeroed in on the political power of sport, using it both as a powerful political tool of influence and as a way to rectify the PR damage caused by one of the most infamous assassinations in history: the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
