Podcast version of our interview with Franck Magennis and Tasnima Uddin from ELSC on the silencing of advocates for Palestine, Gary Lineker, and Zionism's weaponising of the beautiful game.
In this preview of our subscriber-only episode Italia '90: Football of the Future, Tom, Juliet and guest Keir Milburn discuss the media coverage of England and how it changed during their surprising run to the semi-final, and how this, combined with the authorities’ handling of the team’s travelling supporters after years of hooliganism and the disasters at Bradford, Heysel and Hillsborough between 1985 and 1989, won a new generation of middle-class fans over to football. They look at how good England actually were (and often weren’t), how commentators described their quarter-final opponents Cameroon, how the tournament ushered in the Premier League and Sky TV age, and suggest a hauntological reading of Italia ’90 in which football did not become fully neoliberalised – especially if the Soviet Union’s bid to stage the World Cup had been chosen instead.
