Summary:

Ciudad de los Estadios (City of Stadiums) travels around the football grounds of Buenos Aires abridged from Sightlines – a Stadium Odyssey. Written and read by Simon Inglis. As soon as football article writer Simon Inglis read the quotation he knew what had to be carried out. ‘We have significantly more stadiums than general public libraries,’ reported a Buenos Aires newspapers, bemoaning illiteracy prices between the city’s soccer fundamentalists. Digging deeper, Inglis determined that Buenos Aires has indeed more soccer grounds than various other city in the globe. So that it was that in 1998 he set off, armed with a map the size of a dual bed and along with a River Plate fanatic who happened also to be always a pyschotherapist. From your lofty heights of Boca’s Bombonera to the crumbling terraces of Sacachispas, via night clubs known as Arsenal, All Kids and Atlanta, encountering tangoistas, drug-fuelled hooligans and Peronists on the way, this is actually the story of his seven day search. On his list, 36 canchas, or grounds. But would he get to them all? And just as significantly, would the treatment help?
