The exhibition, When Football Was Football: The Photography of Sefton Samuels, 1960s-1980s, is currently on display at Manchester’s National Football Museum.
Sefton Samuels’ photos at Manchester’s National Football Museum chart the game from the 1960s to the 1980s and capture the innocent, gritty and revealing face of football before gentrification hit.
A slice of social history, Sefton Samuels’ photographs capture the much bigger story of the post-industrial decline, north/south divide and working class alienation.
Featuring a combination of portrait shots of iconic players and managers alongside shots of teams, fans, stadiums, ball games on Manchester streets and fabulous haircuts.
