71/72 - Abrahams, Daniel
There was a season when the world's greatest footballers were all on show at British grounds. That season was 1971/72. Best, Keegan, Charlton and Moore were joined by Pele, Cruyff, Beckenbauer and Eusebio, while in the dugouts Clough, Shankly, Revie and Allison duked it out in the closest ever championship title race.
It was a time when players shared pints with fans, Topps football cards were schoolyard currency, Roy Race ruled the comic world and videprinters saw footy devotees hold their collective breath every weekend. As Enoch Powell's rhetoric roared and American Pie topped the pop charts, Britain's footballing culture was simpler purer than the one we know today, with the game played for the public, not for TV companies. As well as covering the superstars, 71/72 is a treasure trove of tales of lesserknown names who added to that extraordinary season.
