Review
We have been playing football now since the Eighteenth century, and ball type games have been recorded back since the times of the Greeks. But it was in the back of a typical British pub in the city of London where the official rules of the game we now know today as Football were drawn up. Since then, we have enjoyed, celebrated, and cried over this sport in our millions. Here at the National Football Museum in Manchester, there is all the history you need to now about this game, it's players past and present, and some the football clubs that have helped over years to turn this sport into a worldwide phenomenon. As you walk around this museum you will be amazed at its collections, its knowledge and the atmosphere here is so resplendent of the great game. Even if your not a football fan, you cannot help but appreciate everything about this great sport that has found its way into millions of hearts around the world.
