As a taster we offer some sample articles from past issues of Soccer History Magazine. These cover a range of the sort of articles you might find in a typical issue of the magazine, ranging from social and cultural history (community singing, World Cup Willie and the evolution of the mascot) through to major events such as the opening of the original Wembley Stadium in 1923 and the migration of British players to France in the 1930s.
Soccer History was first produced in 2002. All previous issues of the magazine are available either as downloads or in print form. To see what’s inside each issue go to ‘Download Issues’ and scroll down to find the Contents Page for each issue.
Many footballers, professional and amateur, internationals and parks players, made the ultimate sacrifice during World War One. At least three players – Donald Bell, Bernard Vann and Willie Angus – won the Victoria Cross. Here we present a roll of honour of well known footballers, past and present, who died on military service during the Great War.
