Quote, Unquote is a trip down memory lane.

Journalist Philip Micallef has written on football (soccer) in Australia for more than 30 years. Now retired, this is a personally curated anthology of his top 100 football stories ranging from the Socceroos, the global game, the A-League, the big-name interviews, the ‘Socceroos Greats’, obituaries and the administration.

It is a potted and subjective history of the game - by no means complete - as seen by someone who in many ways was an ultimate 'insider' as a journalist, but who never lost touch with his love of the game as a fan.
