Descriere

Few cities in the world have as many clubs as London; none have the history explored in Turf Wars. It was here the world-famous FA Cup began, before the capital's new crop of clubs had to meet the challenge posed by the North and Midlands. For more than 100 years turf wars have been fought in every corner of England's most vibrant football city.
