Football used to be fun. Remember the Tuesday Club, short shorts, Adidas Mundials and Mitre balls? Things all got a bit sour after that. Foreign investors with questionable human rights records entered the fray, players started diving and Twitter trolls took over. Still, amongst the madness, magic remains.
Flat Back Four was created to remind you of that, sharing the stories and opinions that define the modern game. Hearing from the fans, aficionado's and just about anyone who has a tale to tell, Flat Back Four looks to make the game beautiful again.
