    ITFC Away Guide 2021/22 An Introduction to the 23 League One Grounds Prepared by the ITFC Supporter Liaison Officer, with added input from other ITFC staff About this guide • This introductory guide is produced by people who have visited all of the grounds in recent years. • The idea is to help you to plan your away trips – in some cases, to choose which are the grounds / places you most want to go to. • Detailed away guides are produced a few weeks before each match, published on the ITFC website, and available for review at the SLO Hub in the FanZone at ITFC. – Note that up-to-date information on rail engineering works (+ replacement buses) and road closures will be included in the detailed match guides. • In compiling this guide, we have mostly relied on our own knowledge and memories, but we have used several additional resources, including opposition Clubs’ websites, www.greateranglia.co.uk and www.google.co.uk/maps. • In particular, though, we have used the website www.footballgroundguide.com, for stadium information, capacities, away ends, fanzones and parking. We do recommend you take a look at this website as you plan your games – but check out our detailed pre-match guides, issued a couple of weeks before each game, for updated pub information – the last year has seen a lot of pub changes, including some new openings.

  • Global Game, Local Identity: the Social Production of Football Space in Liverpool
    GLOBAL GAME, LOCAL IDENTITY: THE SOCIAL PRODUCTION OF FOOTBALL SPACE IN LIVERPOOL DANIEL EVANS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN GEOGRAPHY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO August, 2014 © Daniel Evans, 2014 ii Abstract Based on participant observation of matches and interviews with key informants in Liverpool, UK, this thesis sets out the situation of the globalized English Premier League and its consequences for football (soccer) fandom in Liverpool. I am looking at both the reliance on and resistance to a tourist based consumption of the game. Using a Lefebvrian theoretical framework I analyze how football space is created in Liverpool and how the supporters’ groups of different teams in the city work to both globalize and glocalize the football culture of the city, and are looking to reshape their relationship with football’s current economic and cultural space. As Liverpool increasingly relies on a tourist-based economy with sport as its focus, it is altering the relationship between supporters and their clubs, and with other fans. The monitoring of fan performances by both authorities and other fans can be considered through Foucauldian conceptions of power to continuously shift the dynamics between different groups of supporters. iii Acknowledgements As I spend much of this thesis discussing the formation of social groups and the importance of community, I must acknowledge the many people that helped me in the creation of this work. First, my informants, who helped me understand the football world in Liverpool: Paul Gallagher, Jay McKenna, John Bennett, Andrew Sherlock, Ros Merkin, James Benson, Mike Humphries, Chris Stirrup, Feargal McAvoy, and Steve Kelley.
