James Montague's classic When Friday Comes has been rereleased with added material ahead of the World Cup in Qatar. Travelling to every country in the Middle East and meeting fans, players, workers and campaigners, James paints an unforgettable picture of football in a controversial, vibrant and surprising new world.
In this episode of Tifo Talks, Jon Mackenzie chats to James about the book and how he came to write it before focusing on two Middle Eastern countries in particular, Iran and Qatar.
