After the huge critical acclaim that greeted 'Football Confidential', the 'On The Line' team once again lifts the lid on the secret life of football. It may be the riches and most popular sport in the world, but beneath the surface lie untold stories of corruption, fear and fraud.
Through exclusive interviews and original research, Radio 5 Live's 'On The Line' team exposes the managers who install their sons as chairmen of clubs they are banned from running themselves; the FA officials who saw in Hillsborough not a disaster, but a nice little earner for themselves; and the Premier League Football chairman whose name was used to help perpetrate an alleged multi-million pound bank fraud.
The 'On The Line' team's revelations have led to sackings, rule changes and Parliamentary debates, as they go behind the headlines to expose the real story of the Beautiful Game.
