Contenu
Where have football's 'cult figures' gone? In the sterile and corporate modern game, is there room for the mercurial midfielder or the tough-tackling defender or the pot-bellied goal poacher?
Rewind two or three decades. Footballers had no media training, no filter, no 5% body fat, no cryotherapy chambers, and no quiet nights in with a curly kale salad and a glass of carrot juice.
Meet Julian Dicks: undoubtedly one of the greatest 'cult figures' to play for West Ham United.
Hammer Time is Dicks' hugely entertaining romp through his career and an open love letter to the unique character and atmosphere of West Ham United and East London.
