Watched the whole lot last night till about 4am and loved it. Really interesting and it explains a lot about the structure of professional football the FA. I never really thought about the game having upper class roots and the working class forcing professionalism.
When you think about it this battle still continues to this day, the FA are continually forced to change (maximum wage, European competition, international football, premier league, TV rights) in order to maintain control with big powerful clubs (particularly in the Northern big cities) calling the shots. The main thing I noticed was that power comes from the working class fanbase that developed and baring in mind the current situation the powers that be will do well to heed that.
