Download or read book City Till I Die written by Johnny Potter and published by Author House. This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book follows my journey from 1970-1980, growing up following my beloved Stoke City. During this decade in the history of our football club, we achieved highs and lows of unbelievable proportions. As every Stoke fan knows only too well, our club never does anything in half measures. If you wish to share in some of the triumphs and tragedies of Stoke City and its famous, and sometimes infamous supporters, during the 1970s, then this is the book for you. As always, with Stoke City, the journey is a tidal wave of emotions. That though, is part of the deal when following the famous red and white stripes. Those afore-mentioned supporters have often been labelled unique in their influence over the team.Whilst the behaviour of Stoke fans has been questioned many times, I believe their loyalty is without equal in football circles. We Stokies typically wear our hearts on our sleeves, but it is that emotional bond that ties us to the club with such special effect. So for just a short while, leave these heady days of the Premier League, and come back and see what made it so important that we finally got there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated exploration of the design, meaning and symbolism of world football club crests. Why is there a devil shown on the crest of Manchester United? Which club's crest motto is 'To Dare Is To Do'? And whose emblem depicts a bear and a strawberry tree? From the seahorses of Newcastle United to the royal crown of Real Madrid, via the riveting hammers of West Ham United, Valencia's famous bat design and German club St Pauli's unofficial skull-and-crossbones emblem, there is a story behind every crest, a tale of identity. Covering more than 200 clubs from 20 different leagues, World Football Club Crests explores the design, meaning and symbolism of the game's most famous club crests to reveal why the badges look as they do. This carefully curated collection charts the continuing evolution of the designs and describes the changing styles, varied influences and remarkable controversies that have shaped football's most iconic crests. These important symbols of football heraldry will never be viewed in the same way again.

Download or read book Who Are Ya? written by Kevin Day and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Excellent" –The Times "Kevin's immense knowledge shines on every page." – Gary Lineker "A football book by a fan for the fans. A treasure trove." – Alan Davies "An entertaining romp through the back alleys and glamour parks of English football." – FourFourTwo Partly autobiographical, partly polemical, but mostly funny, Who Are Ya? is a snapshot of modern football, exploring the history of all 92 English Football League clubs . During his time as a broadcaster, comedian and former Match of the Day presenter Kevin Day has spoken to thousands of football players, managers and most importantly fans from across the generations. He spent thousands of hours crossing the country on trains, planes, automobiles, coaches – and once a donkey called Lightning – watching football at all levels.

Crisply funny and with a host of celebrity football fan contributors – including Stephen Fry, Jo Brand, Alfie Boe, Eddie Izzard, Gabby Logan, and Romesh Ranganathan – Who Are Ya? celebrates the joys and miseries of being a football supporter.

Book Synopsis Richer Than God: Manchester City, Modern Football and Growing Up by : David Conn
Download or read book Richer Than God: Manchester City, Modern Football and Growing Up written by David Conn and published by Quercus. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richer Than God is an authoritative, emotional, provocative account of Manchester City's takeover by Sheikh Mansour, culminating in their remarkable last minute Premier League title victory in May 2012. By placing the club's extraordinary current rise in the wider context of its patchy modern history, this is also the story of English football's transformation--from the battlegrounds of the 1980s to today's moneyed, seated, global entertainment. Conn is led to question the very nature of football clubs and being a supporter, the underlying values and running of what used to be called "the people's game." A labor of love, this powerfully told account of Manchester City's fall and rise, based on meticulous research over many years, and exclusive access and interviews with key figures, is written in the gripping, revelatory style Conn has made his trademark.

Book Synopsis Sport and Architecture by : Benjamin S. Flowers
Download or read book Sport and Architecture written by Benjamin S. Flowers and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport and architecture are two elements of contemporary life that have a broad and profound impact on the world around us. The role architecture plays in shaping buildings and societies has occupied historians for centuries. Likewise, the cultural, economic, and political importance of sport is the subject of sustained academic inquiry. When sport and architecture converge, as in the 2012 London Olympics or the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, then the impact of these two forms of social activity is redoubled. This book presents a new and dynamic study of the complex relationship between sport and architecture. It explores the history of sport architecture and examines the buildings and events that create sites where sport and architecture converge in particularly telling ways. Its chapters discuss the following topics: sport architecture and urban redevelopment sport architecture and technology sport architecture and nationalism sport architecture as social activism sport architecture and global capitalism. By considering the importance of architectural form alongside these key themes, this book represents a landmark study for anybody interested in the social and cultural significance of architecture or sport.

Book Synopsis Supporter Ownership in English Football by : Chris Porter
Download or read book Supporter Ownership in English Football written by Chris Porter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a fresh perspective on football fandom in England, going beyond existing debates surrounding the structural transformations English football has seen in recent decades, to consider the contested cultural ground upon which football fandom exists. Supporter Ownership in English Football connects cultural conflict experienced across society associated with negotiating structural changes such as globalisation, commodification and social exclusion, with supporter ownership in football – which is in itself an expression and reflection of broader social and political shifts in class-consciousness. Discourses of identity, authenticity, loyalty, ownership and above all, the possibilities and limitations for ordinary people to influence change, play a decisive role in how fans come to decide whether they could, or should, have a meaningful say in the future of their club and the game itself. While celebrating the achievements, progress and potential of the supporter ownership movement, the book is also careful to take account of the various setbacks, contradictions and limiting tendencies that continue to shape its developmental trajectory. Porter’s relation of football supporter ownership to the political and social class dynamics of contemporary society will be of interest to scholars of sport studies, sociology, cultural studies and politics, and those interested in social movements, consumerism, identity, authenticity and community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LAST summer few football fans would've given Liverpool a realistic chance of Champions League qualification, let alone a title challenge sustained to the final day. But one man believed. The 2013/14 season marked the year when Brendan Rodgers revolutionised the club by restoring the faith and reconnecting it with its fans. Throughout the entire campaign he oversaw a breathtaking brand of football spearheaded by Suarez, Sturridge, Sterling and Steven Gerrard - or "poetry in motion" as the Anfield faithful called it. Kopites asked the squad to ""make us dream,"" and Liverpool were finally awoken from being one of the game's sleeping giants to becoming a force again. Relive all the classic moments through the eyes of a diehard supporter on the road with Rodgers' Reds. And experience fly-on-the-wall accounts of the sights, sounds, songs and smells of match-days. Crammed with in-depth analysis, humour and facts Make Us Dream is not the closing of a chapter, but the start of a compelling new one."
