商品簡介
David Kynaston was six and a half years old when he attended his first Aldershot Town F.C. game in the early months of 1959. So began a deep attachment to the game and a lifelong loyalty to an obscure, small-town football club. Though as he sits down to write his diaries almost sixty years on, he reflects that life might have been simpler if his father had never taken him to that match at the Rec…
Shots in the Dark is the diary David Kynaston kept in the football season of 2016/17, detailing the ups and downs of the ‘Shots’ over the course of a memorable and all-consuming nine months. In the year that saw a divisive referendum in the UK and the impending ascension of Donald Trump, Kynaston offers a social history of modern Britain with a difference, pieced together from reflections on his own life, the world as he’s known it over the last sixty years and his evolving thoughts on class, opportunity, social mobility and liberalism – all through the prism of the beautiful game.
A testament to the myriad ways in which fandom gives solidity and security to our lives, particularly in bewildering and rapidly changing times, Shots in the Dark gets to the heart of what it means to be a devoted follower of a sports team – the love, adoration, hope and despair. Brimming with wisdom, humour and Great British nostalgia, Kynaston’s diaries appeal to our nation’s love of the passionately amateur.
