An Incomplete Biography.
From a nine-year-old who was originally rejected by the Under 12's Protestant Churches team because he was "too small and needed to go home and eat more porridge" to leading Australia through three World Cup Campaigns as Vice Captain and Captain of the Socceroos from 1964 - 1974, Johnny Warren has witnessed every step of soccer's great journey.
This is not a goal-by-goal account of Australia's on-field performance. Rather, Johnny Warren takes a broader look at the game: socially, politically, analytically, and anecdotally. It's a great story that mirrors Australia's social development as a nation from one of the most respected players, coaches and commentators in the sport.
