English football changed in the 1990s. For better, for worse - but
mainly for better. The shirts and shorts got baggier and brighter.
Exotic-named players were enticed from overseas. New stadiums were
built in the wake of the Taylor Report. The Premier League emerged
and England hosted its first international tournament since 1966.
The era of 'New Labour' and 'Cool Britannia', it was also the
decade English football went mainstream. When the Seagulls Follow
the Trawler author Tom Whitworth travelled to English football's
hotbeds - the cities of London, Liverpool, Manchester and Newcastle
- to meet the people who lived through an era of change: the
players and the managers, the owners and the fans. He looks back at
key moments, the teams, the title races, the twists and turns, the
characters and the rivalries. All from a decade when English
football began to shrug off its bad-lad image - at least off the
pitch - and move out of the darkness and into the light.
