Synopsis
For six glorious years and two astonishing World Cup campaigns in the 1980s, tiny Northern Ireland stood up to the global football giants, including mighty host nation Spain. The inspiring story of the squad, which matched legendary experience with extraordinary youthful talent, is one of battling spirit and good humor against the odds.Spirit of '82 tells the full story of how Northern Irish football flourished again for the first time since the glory days recounted in Spirit of '58, and after a period when not even the mercurial presence of George Best could lift the team beyond the occasional flash of brilliance in the midst of defeat.Including interviews with 10 players and their manager, the book will transport football and sports fans pitch-side to revel in the drama of Northern Ireland's fluctuating fortunes and footballing heroics on international stages from Wembley to Mexico City., By the end of the 1970s, the Northern Ireland football team was in the doldrums. Against a background of civil unrest, the team had endured long periods of playing all their games away from home and had just finished bottom of the British Championship for the fourth successive year. Two years later they walked onto the pitch against France to play for a place in the 1982 World Cup semi-finals. In Fields of Wonder, Evan Marshall charts Northern Ireland's incredible World Cup journey in thrilling detail, from the appointment of Billy Bingham as manager and the winning of the British Home Championship in 1980 through the ups and downs of the qualifying stages, and that night of pulsating drama against Spain in Valencia. Based on interviews with manager Billy Bingham and with many of the players, including Pat Jennings, Martin O'Neill, Gerry Armstrong and Norman Whiteside, and told against the backdrop of the Troubles, this book vividly captures the struggles, spirit and magic of Northern Ireland's 1982 World Cup campaign. Book jacket., For six glorious years and two astonishing World Cup campaigns in the 1980s, tiny Northern Ireland stood up to the global football giants. Including interviews with players and managers, the book reveals the drama of the team's fluctuating fortunes and heroics on the international stage.
