NATIONAL FOOTBALL MUSEUM
 
Manchester United is not the only reason for a football fan to head northwards; Manchester is also the new home to the National Football Museum, which proudly presents the finest collection of football memorabilia ever assembled.  From trophies and medals to vintage postcards and cartoons the museum traces the British obsession with the beautiful game and all that it is associated with. Hundreds of images from this collection are available for licensing.

The FIFA Collection

This collection of football memorabilia was assembled by Harry Langton, a London journalist with a passion for the game. Finding a home for the huge collection was one of the driving forces behind the foundation of the Museum.

Football Association celebrates 150-year anniversary

It was 150 years ago that The Football Association was founded on 26 October 1863 at the Freemasons’ Tavern in London as the governing body of football in England.  

For centuries before there were  no universally accepted rules for playing football. In each public school the game was formalised according to local conditions; but when the schoolboys reached university, chaos ensued when the players used different rules.

Thanks to the Football Association, the sport has developed dramatically, with strong progress made for the equality of disabled and female players
