Publisher's Synopsis
Can you still remember a time when footballers played in shirts numbered 1-11? Or when a ticket for a match only cost as much as a ticket for the cinema? Or maybe when you used to stand up to cheer your team on? If you can answer yes to these, the chances are that you will have witnessed the enormous changes that ran through the nineties, a time when the national game was commercially rebranded and brought back from the margins.
Take a nostalgic stroll back to an era in which footballers began to wear their names on their backs, their collars high and their white suits at Wembley. It was a time when Gazza mania was rife, when Fergie's United rediscovered their winning gene, when Alan Shearer could not stop scoring and Roy Keane could not stop snarling.
Football in the 1990s is an affectionate look at all the essential action and anecdotes from the decade and will take you back to a time of seismic change in the national game. As football became hip and some footballers became hipsters, it was a time of overseas stars, over-whelming TV coverage and oversized wage packets. Read on for the best seat in the stand . . .
