“Many books examined Leicester City’s glorious, unexpected victory in this year’s Premiership, but only Northcroft’s account really understood its significance.” The Telegraph, Top 50 Books of 2016
“Northcroft’s stylish narrative delves deeper than the stock themes of heart, spirit and long-ball football, and argues that it was, above all, a triumph of the collective over the individual; the slow build over the quick fix.” Jonathan Liew, The Telegraph
“Required reading for every club aspiring to achieve a fraction of what Leicester did, it reveals in its impeccably researched detail some of the less appreciated reasons why ‘the greatest miracle in sports history’ actually happened.” Ian Herbert, The Independent
