  • Fanatics!: Power, Identity and Fandom in Football
    6 ‘FOOTBALL’S COMING HOME’ BUT WHOSE HOME? AND DO WE WANT IT? Nation, football and the politics of exclusion Ben Carrington Racism manifests itself in plural and complex forms. In this situation the logic of racism needs to be appraised in what we shall call metonymic elaborations. This means that racisms may be expressed through a variety of coded signifiers…. Contemporary racisms have evolved and adapted to new circumstances. The crucial property of these elaborations is that they can produce a racist effect while denying that this effect is the result of racism. (Solomos and Back 1996:27, emphasis added) Introduction This chapter argues that the dominant discourse that surrounded Euro 96 (the 1996 European Football Championships) drew on, and reinforced, a form of cultural racism that currently appears to be pervasive. It is argued that the national ‘imagined community’ (Anderson 1991) that was re- constructed was one that actively worked to exclude certain categories of people—being both gendered and racially exclusive. Seeking to understand the underlying cultural processes that generated this discourse, I show the connections between other cultural spheres, notably pop music, and argue that these cultural expressions are part of a wider reassertion of a narrow and closed white male English identity which has become coded as the so- called ‘New Lad’ phenomenon. The chapter surveys some of the contemporary characteristics of popular culture before locating the pivotal role of comedians David Baddiel and Frank Skinner in generating the Euro 96 anthem, ‘Three Lions’ with its ‘football’s coming home’ chorus, and outlines why this song and related themes became so popular within both the public and political imagination.

  • Commercial Alternative
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Birkbeck Institutional Research Online Commercial Alternative Joseph Brooker – Slow down / You’re taking me over… 1 – Another victory like that and we are done for.2 By the end of the 1980s, popular culture and media commentary brimmed with a self-conscious desire to name and describe the present. Few decades have had as clear an account of themselves as the 1980s, whatever the gaps and limits of that account. The 1990s became ever more sure of what had happened in the 1980s; but packing the 1990s themselves into a compelling summary proved more difficult. For the time being, those looking for stories of the last decade must make do with tracts like Stephen Bayley’s Labour Camp, a brief, bilious assault on the aesthetics and politics of Blair’s first term. For all his rancour, snobbery and carelessness, Bayley lands a few hits, and leaves a few hints. Bayley reads New Labour in terms not of social and economic policy, but of taste and image: Blair’s choice of car, the efforts at ‘rebranding Britain’, the design of the Dome. The cultural emblem of the Blair years, he proposes, is Elton John: He is a popular phenomenon, therefore it is irrelevant and elitist even to wonder if he is actually any good. He is emphatically middle-of-the-road. He is classless.... After a much-reported past of rock-star excess, he is clean, dried out…. Whoever would have thought you could relaunch old Labour? Whoever would have thought you could relaunch Elton John? The parallels between the two transformations are remarkable.3 The thought is suggestive, but leaves much unsaid about the new terrain inherited and shaped by the Blair government.

  • Paradigm Lost? Youth and Pop in the 90S Rupa Huq
    soundings issue 6 Summer 1997 Paradigm lost? Youth and pop in the 90s Rupa Huq Youth culture in the 1990s has been redefining itself around two vibrant musical forms - dance and Britpop. Rock, initially at any rate, was a contemporary incitement to mindless fucking and arbitrary vandalism: screw and smash music. George Melly, Revolt into Style Throughout its existence pop has been an essential part of British post-war youth culture: a cathartic outlet for youthful self-expression, empowerment and liberation from adult culture. Encapsulated in the Who lyric 'hope 1 die before I get old', pop mythology has dictated the value of dying young and beautiful. (Although the Who never lived up to their stated aim.) When slacker king Kurt Cobain did die young he was elevated to youth icon status, helped by his suicide declaration - 'it's better to burn than fade away'. Pop has always been young because sound and fury equate with youth; quiet signifies maturity; and ultimately silence denotes death. But today pop's assured place at the core of youth culture seems precarious. Youth culture is undergoing profound changes. In an ironic reversal, four decades of pop history means that it is steeped in the past: the subject of numerous books, publications and even university degrees. The pop-youth cohort is increasingly difficult to sustain; pop's audience has become more than teenage malcontents. In 1995 Simon Frith, founder of the 'sociology of rock' commented: 'age is a funny thing in music. For young people now, rock and roll is old people's music.'1 Indeed, 1.

And then you are a footballer, and you’re suddenly in the strangest, most baffling world of all. A world where one team-mate comes to training in a bright red suit with matching top-hat, cane and glasses, without any actual glass in them, and another has so many sports cars they forget they have left a Porsche at the train station. Even when their surname is incorporated in the registration plate. So walk with me into the dressing-room, to find out which players refuse to touch a football before a game, to discover why a load of millionaires never have any shower-gel, and to hear what Cristiano Ronaldo says when he looks at himself in the mirror. ABOUT THE AUTHOR First things first: yes I am very tall, no the weather isn’t different up here, and no I don’t play basketball. Glad that’s out the way. I’ve been a professional footballer for 20 years, have 42 England caps, have scored over 100 Premier League goals and hold the record for the most headed goals in Premier League history. I’ve been at a fair few clubs too, including Queens Park Rangers, Portsmouth, Aston Villa, Norwich, Southampton, Liverpool, Portsmouth, Tottenham Hotspur, Stoke and England.
