How Britain Fell in Love with the NFL
This book tells the story of how American football crossed the Atlantic and became part of British sporting culture, from television breakthroughs and Wembley crowds to the fans, players and broadcasters who helped build the game’s UK audience.
It is for NFL fans, sports-media readers and anyone interested in how a once-unfamiliar part of American culture found a home in Britain.

I regularly discuss the NFL, college football and other sports across radio, TV and podcasting, including work with talkSPORT, the BBC and The Nat Coombs Show.
My broadcasting work combines subject expertise with the same editorial instincts I bring to the page and social media: clarity, pace and a sense of what the audience needs next.
