And this is where organised football, as we know it, was formed. Football was becoming increasingly popular, more teams were playing, more fans were watching, but they were all playing by different rules. Why was it so important to create a unified set of rules? What impact did this have on the teams? Why was competitive football so important to society in the late 1800s? And who was the best team back then? This is the first in a series, written by Jonathan Wilson, exploring the entire history of football. Illustrated by Philippe Fenner.
