Declan Hill set out to examine the world of football match fixing in professional soccer. The Fix is his story.
He looks at the structure and mechanics of illegal gambling syndicates, what soccer players and referees do (or not do) to affect the outcome of their games, why relatively rich and high-status athletes would fix games, how and why club officials would bribe the opposition and how they get referees “on their side.”
Visit Hill’s website for his blog, a petition to ‘save our sport’, excerpts from the award winning book, primary source documents, interviews and photos of the author, and international versions of the book.
