Aprašymas
A history of how fanzines redefined football and amplified supporters' voices.
When the matchday many were treated as the hooligan few, football supporters didn't react with violence or vandalism, but with typewriters, staple guns and Tippex. The fanzine movement of the 1980s transformed a bleak time into a hopeful one, re-humanising spectators in the process.
Producing DIY zines and selling them outside football grounds from Middlesborough to Torquay, supporters offered authenticity, humour and criticism written from the terraces and not the press box, with truths that their clubs and the footballing authorities found uncomfortable.
From Heysel and Hillsborough to anti-racism and the women's game, this book is a people's history of football and wider Britain in the late 20th century. It is an alternative version of our national game's narrative, encompassing themes that still matter now from social class and club ownership to the dubious nature of pie contents.
Through exhaustive archival research, interviews with those who were there, nostalgic illustrations and Gray's familiar vivid writing style, the book documents why football fanzines mattered so much. Whether you support Manchester City, Hibernian, Bournemouth or one of many other clubs, big or small, the club is sure to have been honoured by a funnily named fanzine.
