Sweet Chariot: The Complete Book of the Rugby World Cup 2003 [Hardcover] Robertson, Ian

England lifting the Webb Ellis Cup in Sydney. Jonny Wilkinson's drop goal in extra time. Martin Johnson's unshakeable leadership. Ian Robertson takes you inside the tournament that defined a generation of rugby — the 2003 World Cup where England finally broke their duck on the biggest stage. This isn't just match reports and statistics. Robertson, the BBC's voice of rugby for decades, delivers tactical insight, dressing room drama, and the emotional arc of a campaign that went down to the final seconds. From pool stages to that rain-soaked final against Australia, he captures the intensity, the brilliance, and the sheer relief of English rugby's greatest triumph. Perfect for anyone who remembers where they were when Wilkinson struck, or wants to understand why 2003 still matters.
