Was the 70s and 80s the golden era of football? Talk by Essex Uni researchers 08:36 - Jun 27 with 3162 viewsGOSBTS

Hi all,

History Indoors is an organisation run by researchers from the University of Essex providing free history talks to the general public during the lockdown on Zoom. Our next talk on Wednesday looks at whether the pre-Premier League 1970s and 80s was a golden era or not. Terracing and affordable ticket prices versus racism and hooliganism?

This might be interesting for U's fans to think back on the days of Layer Road. Do you remember the 70s and 80s fondly for football, or are things better today overall?

The talk is at 2pm and 7pm on Wednesday 1st July. You can find out more and sign up here: https://historyindoors.co.uk/talk/the-golden-age-english-football-before-the-pre

Thanks guys,
Steven :)

We filmed our roundtable discussion on the topic at the weekend. If you're not sick to death of podcast style football chat, you can watch three Ipswich fans, one Brighton/Col U (myself) fan and an Ebbsfleet United fan talk about nostalgia, safe standing and out-of-town stadiums. I talk about the U's and the Community Stadium a bit in it.

Gave it a watch.
Kept wondering why only the 70/80's ring fenced in the topic . Should have included the obvious answer of the 60's where English teams started to conquer European competitions and the only time we won the World Cup.

Hi bwildered! Thank you for watching! I think perhaps the speaker didn't venture into the 60s because he couldn't talk from first hand experience and perhaps because the more problematic aspects of the game (racism, hooliganism etc) hadn't quite reared their head at that point (I wasn't alive then so I'm not sure how true/false that assertion is)?
