  • The World Cup— a Pictorial History on Stamps by John F
    Historic Events: The World Cup— A pictorial history on stamps by John F. Dunn With the World Cup beginning on June 12 and running through the championship game on July 13 in Brazil, we present here stamps that trace the history of this worldwide event from the first, 1930, competition to date. Prelude: The world’s most popular sport, football—known in the United States as soccer—has elements that trace back to ancient Greece and Rome, but the rules of the sport as we know it today came into fruition in the mid-19th Century in England, where various forms of the game were played as far back as the eight century. The first formal “International” competition was held in 1872, albeit it between England and Scotland. By 1900 the sport was sufficiently widespread that it was introduced as a demonstration sport (with no medals awarded), and then as a medal sport in the 1908 London Olympics. It was not until the 1920 Olympics that a non-Euro- pean nation competed—Egypt, along with 13 European teams—in a competition that was won by Belgium. Uru- guay won the 1924 and 1928 Olympics. By 1930, under the leadership of its President, Jules Rimet, the Federation Interna- tionale de Football Associations (FIFA) was ready to stage its own tournaments, free of the amateur restrictions of the Olympics. Hav- ing won the previous two Olympic Championships, and with the Jules Rimet and the first South American nation celebrates trophy, named “The God- its 100th Anniversary of inde- dess of Victory,” which pendence, Uruguay became the later came to be known as natural choice as the first World the Rimet Cup, on a stamp from Hungary.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Teeside University's Research Repository 1 CONTRASTING REPRESENTATIONS OF ENGLISHNESS DURING FIFA WORLD CUP FINALS TOM GIBBONS University of Teesside Football and English national identity have been interlinked for over a century. The increased display of the St George Cross rather than the Union flag when the England team compete in international football competitions has been linked to a rise in a specifically English national consciousness. Academics have assumed this to be a response to advancing European integration and political devolution within contemporary Britain without providing much empirical evidence for such claims. However, evidence from qualitative discourse analysis of British daily newspaper coverage of FIFA World Cup Finals suggests that Englishness has always been banally depicted as a multifaceted concept in relation to football. First, Englishness has long been and still is used to refer to Britishness and vice-versa in World Cup coverage. Second, World Cup football correspondents have often referred to strongly felt regional and local divisions within Englsh society that co-exist with the idea of an overarching English national consciousness. This paper forms part of a wider investigation into the complexities of defining Englishness through football fandom practices. Introduction The main point of this essay is to provide empirical evidence to suggest that Englishness has been banally depicted as a multifaceted concept throughout the history of the England national team‟s involvement in the FIFA World Cup Finals tournament. This is achieved through an analysis of British national press coverage of tournaments the England team have qualified for.

Without their help, this thesis would not have been possible. They have helped me all along the way. I would first like to thank my advisor, Dr. John Rooney for his ongoing guidance and encouragement from the beginning of the project. His knowledge and experience has greatly enhanced the finished product of this thesis. I would also like to thank Dr. Tom Wikle for his continued support and encouragement throughout the duration of the thesis. I would like to thank Dr. Stephen Miller as his input was greatly appreciated. I couldn’t have done this thesis without the continued support and encouragement of my parents, Bob and Lisa Springer. Even though there were times that become very stressful, they always helped me stay on track. I would especially like to thank my dad, because without his help, there would be no way the maps and figures would look as good as they do.

  • England and the FIFA World Cup 1
    England and the FIFA World Cup A How much do you already know? True False Football was played in England in the thirteenth century. Rules for Association Football were first written down in 1763. The first professional clubs were formed in Germany in 1885. England has won the FIFA World Cup only once. England has always made it to the final round of the World Cup. Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland have their own football teams. There are 18 clubs in England’s Premiere League, as in Germany’s Bundesliga. B “The Home of Football” The FIFA World Cup is the most prestigious prize that a national football team can win. Every nation wants its team to win, but we English believe that we have more right to win than any- body else. After all, football is our game! We invented it and have played it the longest, so we should win. Not only the English consider England to be the home of football; FIFA’s website also awards England (or Britain to be precise) this honorary title. But is England really the home of football or is this just a delusion? Most sports are believed to have originated in many countries at the same time, but most ex- perts seem to agree that football was played most and earliest in England. Whole villages played football against each other in the thirteenth century – although they were apparently often just an excuse to settle old scores (so not much has changed there!). England is also the country where the rules for Association Football were first written down.

The strange phenomenon of the footballer's perfect 1 Jim Walker CRTT / Université Lumière Lyon 2 This paper must begin with two confessions on the part of its author, right from the very outset. The first is purely anecdotal, in that the research which it recounts was born, in part, of a passion - that of watching football - which all too often is seen as having very little to do with the lofty call of academia. If no other end is achieved herein than a demonstration that football can lead to serious linguistic reflection, in other words that intellectual business can indeed be combined with pleasure, then that in itself is perhaps sufficient. The second is a more serious confession, in that it relates to the way this paper, and the research process on which it is based, has been devised.
