Take a look at the contents to see which historic moments are captured. How is your West Ham memorabilia book personalised?The sociologist Dr Jamie Cleland has been studying the discourse of football and football fans for more than a decade, and agrees that the window has shifted. “What we’re seeing,” he says, “is a ‘casualisation’ of language. Society has become a lot busier, and so social norms aren’t being challenged as they would have been historically. People are getting away with things that they wouldn’t have a generation previously.” You can buy the personalised Liverpool Newspaper Book from Historic Newspapers here. There is also a Deluxe Pictorial Edition available, telling the story of Liverpool Football Club through iconic photographs. Major Reds players have contributed monumentally to Liverpool’s reputation since their founding in 1892. In addition to all the Owens, Gerrards and Salahs, legends of the Shankly and Paisley eras like Ray Clemence, Graeme Souness and Kenny Dalglish are among the players featured who make this Liverpool history book a must-have keepsake. There’s no better edition around to match the multitude of Liverpool’s football legacy.

And so, if these forces go as deep as humanity itself, how on earth do we begin to resist them? “I’ve seen people argue education is important,” says Cleland. “But in many ways, we’re past that stage. The problem is so deep. The fluidity is getting out of control. It’s probably impossible, but society needs to shake itself down, reassess the ways in which we deal with each other.” Mercifully we skip the ownership debacles and the brief but painful Roy Hodgson months, and leap instead to King Kenny’s second coming and the return of silverware. Then it’s onto the Brendan Rodgers near miss and the magic and madness of Luis Suarez. You’ll drink it all in, loving every image and pouring over every word. This is a must have gift for any Red with a passion for the history of Liverpool Football Club. It will delight the match-going fan as well as those watching from afar and, for any avid collector of memorabilia, it is a treasure trove of memories from the Reds’ glorious history.

A Personalised Football Book for Any Occasion

Complete with unforgettable achievements from Upton Park, London Stadium and a multitude of away games, the West Ham history book captures the team’s highs and lows from the early 20th century onwards. West Ham was formed in 1900 and, as every loyal fan will instantly recognise in this edition, some of the greatest players in English football history have played for the team. With this exceptional piece of Everton memorabilia, fans receive the perfect gift to celebrate the team’s greatest moments. Recipients can revisit history as it was originally reported, through newspaper articles written by those who were present at the games. This includes detailed matches played at Goodison Park Stadium and Everton’s history after they were founded in 1878. It’s the most lucrative Everton history book around. Here we visit Joe Fagan‘s historic treble winners, Kenny’s double winners, the all Merseyside cup finals and the flamboyance of the John Barnes era. The terrible grief of Hillsborough and the catharsis of the 1989 cup final, that brought a city together, all told by voices from the past. There are clear parallels here between the rise of online abuse towards footballers and the highly gendered hooliganism of the 1970s and 1980s, a process that Cleland describes as “capital acquisition”. “This was the notorious aspect of hooliganism: people engaged in violent behaviour because it gave them a form of social or cultural capital,” he says. “Through the generations, football has historically turned boys into men. Whereas once they proved themselves by engaging in violence, now it’s about proving their worth online as a fan. That person might not have a high level of capital in their everyday life. But this gives them a sense of worthiness. They want someone to bite. They feel alive.” Paper Source: Our books use from responsibly sourced paper from FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified paper manufacturers.
