Sporting Justice: 101 Sporting Encounters with the Law Summary Signed

Sporting Justice: 101 Sporting Encounters with the Law by Ian Hewitt Signed

Hardcover

2008. First Edition. 370 pages. Signed by the author. Pictorial jacket over blue cloth. Contains colour photographic plates throughout. Flat signed by author to title pa

Ian Hewitt, a member of the management committee of the Wimbledon Championships who as a solicitor helped in the formation of the Premier League, looks at cases as diverse as US baseballs Shoeless Joe Jackson and the selling of the 1919 World Series to Eric Cantonas kung-fu attack on a fan in 1995.

Football also supplies Duncan Ferguson and Bobby Moore while among the many other top sports stars appearing are Lester Piggott and Kieren Fallon from horse racing; Ben Johnson and Christine Ohoruogu from athletics; Ian Botham and Hansie Cronje from cricket; Eddie Irvine from motor racing; Tiger Woods from golf; Michael Watson from boxing; Stephen Hendry from snooker; Phil Taylor from darts and Greg Rusedski from tennis.

All have contributed, some reluctantly, to the history of leading sporting encounters with the law.

101 cases where sport in the UK, and the rest of the world, has rubbed up against the law - whether in a court or a tribunal. Ian Hewitt looks at cases as diverse as US baseball's Joe Jackson to Eric Cantona's kung-fu attack on a fan in 1995. Many have contributed, some reluctantly, to the history of leading sports figures' encounters with the law. Hewitt's own favourite is the upset Leicester soccer fan who sued a referee for the shock suffered as a result of the official's penalty decision in the last minute of extra time in an FA Cup tie.
