Greatest of All Time by Alex Allison review – lifting the taboo of being gay in football The latest novel from Alex Allison focuses on an openly gay relationship in football, between two Premier League players.

“And, as revolutionary as it shouldn’t be, the fact that this is a novel about two professional footballers who engage in an openly gay sexual relationship is significant.” ⚽

As David Coote says, “there’s a lot to be done throughout football and more widely in society with regard to discrimination."
