About this audiobook

Twelve-year-old striker Macbeth is determined to become captain of Shotfield football team, and he will do whatever it takes. Macbeth's mum also pushes him to get ahead on the pitch – even if it means playing dirty – so that he'll be spotted by academy scouts. So when the whistle blows for the big game, fair is foul and fouls are fair!
