Route One Football is an even more functional form of no-nonsense football. It is an attacking move whereby the goalkeeper, or central defenders, hoof the ball straight to a lone ‘target man’ who in turn tries to bundle it into the net using most or all of his body.

abstract	Route One Football is an even more functional form of no-nonsense football. It is an attacking move whereby the goalkeeper, or central defenders, hoof the ball straight to a lone ‘target man’ who in turn tries to bundle it into the net using most or all of his body. This way, the majority of players on the pitch are bypassed, and the tiresome business of passing the ball is avoided altogether. It has proved an efficient process, both in terms of time and personnel: it meant, for example, that the Republic of Ireland were able to attend the 1990 FIFA World Cup with only two players – goalkeeper Pat Bonner and target man Niall Quinn – saving the country a packet on airfares and accommodation. (Bonner stayed on a friend’s sofa in Cagliari, while Quinn claimed to have ‘crashed with some of the Egyptian lads’.)
