Footballs Backside
A photographic documentary about the backside of football
Spanning a six month period, I travelled to various places around the UK to watch the game of football to record the culture the way I see the game. I’ve played football since I was a little boy. It started in the street, on grassed areas in the middle of our housing estate, on sloping hills, full on matches on a pitch with about 20 on each side, plus for local teams in league and cup games.
I’ve watched football all of my life, on the telly and at so many professional matches home and away. The one thing I get a buzz for is the atmosphere, I love what the game gives to life. The entertainment and the shared passion with friends and family is what it’s all about, the people.
