The celebratory images and texts in this book – every one by Stuart Clarke – are spread across 21 years and take in football at all levels including a whole chapter devoted to the historic World Cup in Germany 2006. The timespan takes the viewer through the period post-Hillsborough to a Liverpool FC in crisis, along with a whole bunch of clubs facing administration. The book reminds us why we ever ‘choose’ to love our clubs…with visual dollops of humour, patriotism, self-deprecation, loyalty…and sense of occasion.
