GOT, NOT GOT
Revisit the Lost World of Football…
Football used to be better in the past. It’s a fact that’s finally proven by this giant collection of memories, characters, anecdotes, archive pictures and the very ‘stuff’ of all our footy-mad childhoods from the ‘Golden Age’ of the 1960s, 70s and 80s.
There’s everything here from mud and cloggers to comics and carpet-level games… quilted goalie tops, football stickers (that weren’t sticky), floodlight pylons, progress charts, antique handheld games, boiled burgers, petrol freebies, proper baldies, the clump of turf memento…
But never mind grumbling in the pub about the current crop of tattooed billionaires and their ridiculous salaries. ‘Got, Not Got’ isn’t just packed with heartwarming and hilarious nostalgia. It also adds up to a fans’ blueprint for the future of football – next stop, the FA and Premier League…
