SHORTLISTED FOR BEST SPORTS WRITING AT THE SPORTS BOOK AWARDS 2023"Sheer joy" – Patrick Barclay"Exhilarating" – When Saturday Comes"Perfect" – Josh Widdicombe"?????" – FourFourTwoFour years after the crowning glory of 1966, and a decade after the abolition of the maximum wage, a brash new era dawned in English football.

As the 1970s took hold, a new generation of larger-than-life players and managers emerged, appearing on television sets in vivid technicolour for the first time. Set against a backdrop of strikes, political unrest, freezing winters and glam rock, Get It On tells the inside story of how commercialism, innovation, racism and hooliganism rocked the national game in the 1970s. Packed with interviews with the legends of the day, this footballing fiesta charts the emergence of Brian Clough, Bob Paisley and Kevin Keegan and the fall of George Best, Alf Ramsey and Don Revie, presenting a vibrant portrait of the most groundbreaking decade in English football history.
