That World Cup Guy

Forty Years, Nine World Cups and One Fan's Incredible Journey

De: Andy Milne

Narrado por: Andy Milne

First-of-its-kind football travel memoir spanning nine World Cups—told by an England superfan with a flair for storytelling who became a "viral" sensation.

Andy’s viral fame peaked during the 2022 Qatar World Cup, when fans noticed his distinctive look and began tracing his appearances at various past tournaments.

That World Cup Guy is a joyful, unpredictable journey through more than 40 years of football fandom, following Andy as he travels across the globe to attend nine World Cups—eight men’s and one women’s.

This unique book brings you:

• A rare, evolving view of 40 years of the World Cup: both the competition and its growing global culture
• More than just football: it’s a book about the people, places and adventures that come with chasing the World Cup—from sleeping rough in Spain to partying with fans in the streets of Rio
• Cultural snapshots: whether it’s a Brazilian BBQ, an Italian piazza or a Thai beach bar, each story offers a vivid sense of place and community—an unofficial history of how the World Cup brings the world together
• Celebrity and surreal encounters: from chance meetings with drug smugglers and football legends to pretending to be a Romanian journalist to sneak into a stadium, the book is packed with offbeat, unforgettable moments
• Engaging, fan-driven writing: Andy writes with warmth, honesty and a light touch, making it easy for listeners to join him in the highs and lows of following football’s greatest tournament

While rooted in England’s story, this is a book for anyone who loves football, travel, or simply a good human story told with humour and insight.
