Football Magazines

The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, James Maw and Michael Cox flick through a brief history of football magazines, including glossy adverts for shinpads, dissecting every quickfire footballer interview ever, the story of Icon, the ill-fated magazine created by Jamie Redknapp and Tim Sherwood....and the eternal debate: Shoot or Match? They also discuss football's disappointing lack of eponymous adjectives, the strict criteria of a team's match going "from bad to worse" and, of course, Premier League defenders nicknamed after walls.
