Summary: Is 4-4-2 magazine real?
Comment: I've paid for a year's subscription but three months later no magazine. If you want this magazine strongly consider going to your local bookstore and do not risk throwing away your money here.

Summary: Great for the soccer mad man in your life
Comment: For the soccer mad guy who has everything this is a great magazine to subscribe to. I got it for my hubby who is a mad Liverpool fan and he read and rereads this magazine and passes it to his friends. We live in the USA and can only get this by subscription. It is like the equivalent of People mag. for guys - full of gossip and facts.

Summary: Great Magazine Just Don't Count On Ever Getting It!!!
Comment: Four Four Two is a great magazine. It has great stories by some of the best football writers and is also often very funny. I have learned a great deal about the game reading it. Unfortunately, I still have not received an issue through my Amazon order. Completely ridiculous. I placed the order more than two months ago and still no magazine. Amazon works with an outside company to fill magazine orders and they are horrible. I tried to contact the outside company on at least 3 occasions and did not even receive the courtesy of a response to my e-mail. Amazon promised to look in to the matter 8 days ago but still no word from Amazon. This is a great magazine but if you can buy it at a news stand or a brick and mortar book store buy it there. The Amazon price is not much of a bargain over what I pay for it at my local Barnes and Noble anyway. I can not say enough good things about the magazine and I can not say enough bad things about my experience trying to subscribe to it through Amazon!

Summary: The best stuff happens off the pitch
Comment: I love this magazine because the articles can make you howl with laughter (and they printed my e-mail!). It is very corporate and flashy but the columns, letters, and monstrous close-up photos give it a lot of personality. The information is sometimes a bit dodgy. If the cover says a manager has professed his love for his team, by the time the magazine has hit the stands, said manager has been paid off and sent off. And in the "Boy's a bit special" section, I've been reading 442 for 9 years and a tiny handful of those players make it to the premiership.

Their best material is their surveys. Best players, richest players, richest teams, most important managers, etc. And they put together some pretty good supplements. The subscription price is worth it to stay connected to the inside track.

Summary: Second best but not bad
Comment: FourFourTwo is full of ads and reflects the corporate side of our national game. The interviews are often anodyne and it tends to concentrate on the big clubs. When Saturday Comes is better reflecting football culture in all its various forms, unfortunately you'll have to search for it stateside. That said, this is ok and, in the land of the ball game, it must be manna from heaven.
