The English Disease

[AJ71]

Just watched this on Youtube, a Brass Tacks documentary from 1988. Bit of City interest as the cup match v Liverpool is featured along with interviews with Swales, but it mainly focusses on Luton and the membership scheme. Highlights how much has changed, but also how the demographic changed apparently at Luton during then away fan ban (more families attending). Just wonder what would have happened to football if Thatchers plans had been widely implemented, would it be even more sanitised than it is now?

Oh, can anyone spot themselves on the Maine Road footage?
