IAN HERBERT: It's often that those who see our football from outside this country have the highest appreciation of the cathedrals, which have been largely ignored now. When Stuart Roy Clarke, a leading documentary photographer, wanted to produce 'The Homes of Football,' capturing our 1990s journey through the game as it came on the brink of modernization, the only publisher willing to commission it was German 'Spielmacher'. The finished product, which was released a few years ago, is stunning, but the text is in German, with an English translation tucked away at the back. Some of the best stadiums, packed with fans when Clarke depicted them, are as iconic as ever to those who remember them, as shown by Mail Sport journalist Ian Ladyman's visit to the old Maine Road center circle in south Manchester last year.
