All Crazee Now is the story of English football and its footballers
in the 1970s, a decade that saw the start of the move from the
'old-fashioned' game towards the modern Premier League era; a
transition that accelerated throughout the decade. Much of what we
recognise in today's game is rooted in the seventies - including
diverse ethnicity and multi-nationalism in club teams; the rise of
commercialism; the cult of the manager; the end of the
player-next-door; and the demand for victory ahead of
individualism. The beginning of the decade remains the period in
English football that supporters felt more connected than anytime
previous or since. By the time the Thatcherite 1980s were dawning,
the way had been paved for a rapid evolution towards 21st-century
football. More than just a chronicle of trophy winners, star
players and personalities, it offers a study of the tactical,
philosophical, social, cultural, economic and political landscape
that shaped football throughout a turbulent period for a nation and
its favourite sport.
