Download or read book Football s Better with Fans written by Antony Rickson and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Football stadiums are supposed to be packed with cheering fans. It was that way for more than 100 years until the coronavirus pandemic changed all our lives. Football managed to struggle on at some levels but without crowds - just cardboard cut-outs and fake noise instead. There was even a half measure for a while with a couple of thousand spectators allowed in. A banner at Old Trafford read, 'Football is nothing without fans', but what we discovered is that it isn't nothing, it's just better with fans there. Filled with fascinating stories, anecdotes, opinions and social media comments, Football's Better with Fans explores what it means to be a supporter. It's a light-hearted and highly dippable look at the lives of loyal fans, the fun and games they've enjoyed, their songs, banter, commitment, tattoos and traditions. The book doesn't shy away from tragedies, hooliganism or racism, but mainly it's a joyful celebration of football fandom and how we all survived when we couldn't go to games.

Download or read book Best Pele and a Half Time Bovril A Nostalgic Look at the 1970s Football s Last Great Decade written by Andrew Smart and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05-08 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE 1970S - THE LAST DECADE WHEN EVERY FAN OF EVERY CLUB COULD WISH FOR THE STARS.For supporters of provincial lightweights like Derby County, Nottingham Forest and Leeds United, their wishes came true in the seventies when they landed the Division One title. It was the decade of the underdog - when the FA Cup was still football's Holy Grail and teams like Sunderland, Ipswich and Southampton came in from the sticks to produce their own brand of Wembley magic. It is not like that today.It was the decade when every team had its characters: Stan Bowles, Charlie George, Duncan McKenzie, Frank Worthington, Tony Currie, Rodney Marsh. These personalities are gone now, replaced by an influx of anonymous foreign journeymen.This book harks back to a lost era when the game still belonged to the fans; they could identify with the players, recognise their heroes, and believe they all had a shot at glory.It remembers dramatic matches packed with action and controversy; recalls mercurial managers like Shankly, Clough, Revie and the Doc - and asks the question: who was the finest player from football's last great decade?

Download or read book Murphy s Mission written by Sally Mears and published by Mersea Press. This book was released on 2022-09-14 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Murphy's Mission is a rollercoaster ride through the life story of a journeyman, football manager, legend, and self-styled bard of the beautiful game. From a career with 15 different clubs from the 1970s to the early 2000s, Colin Murphy's biography is crammed full of dressing room high jinks, boardroom bust-ups, rescue missions, and scouting for non-league gems. Described by John Inverdale as 'one of my favourite people in sport ever', Murph was called The Saviour (Lincoln City), The Unsung Hero (Hull City), and The Mad Man (Southend United). As national coach of Vietnam he was hero-worshipped by a nation. Murph's catalogue of clubs from his 35 years in professional football management includes: Nottingham Forest, Derby County, Notts County, Lincoln City, Stockport County, Al-Ittihad (Saudi Arabia), Leicester City, Luton Town, Southend United, Shelbourne, Vietnam national team, Tottenham Hotspur (youth academy), Myanmar national team, Cork City and Hull City. An antidote to the excesses of the Premier League, real football fans will love this meticulously researched story of hard graft and survival against the odds. Extracts from Murph's madcap programme notes, and original interviews with former colleagues, including Roy Hodgson, David Pleat and Howard Wilkinson, bring the wit and wisdom of this much-loved character to life.

Book excerpt: Footballers are renowned for their quips, unguarded remarks and slips-of-the-tongue. Comments and off-the-cuff remarks are often hilarious, frequently nonsensical, and sometimes downright insulting, while some soccer stars can be remarkably lucid and inspirational when discussing the 'beautiful game'. It's not just the players who have an amusing or insightful turn of phrase: managers and coaches notoriously pull no punches when it comes to team-talk and criticism of their players' activities on and off the pitch. This book celebrates the quotes and verbal gaffes from the world of soccer with almost 150 photographs selected from the vast archives of Mirrorpix.
