What do the younger generations say, did they lose out or not because they didn't witness Koudas, Sideris, and Domazos, Papayiannou, Chrsitidis, and Hatzipanagiotis instilling awe and emotion in the stadiums?
The well-known journalist and author Kostas D. Bliatkas describes the people and events that shaped the history of Greek football, with a focus on the sixties and seventies. Familiar words and images.
Leoforos, Karaiskakis, Toumba, and Philadelphia, the cushions and the concrete stands, the hits of 45 RPM records on the speakers, Kazantzidis, Manolis Anagnostakis, Savvopoulos.
Alongside all this, other images and music, as if from a distant planet, the Beatles, Bobby Moore, and Best, Tottenham's bird and Pelé's Santos.
The book contains over fifty stories referring to significant events in the social and political history of Greek football. Serious and hilarious episodes from a time of innocence but also of the formation of the identity of Greek football as we know it today.
The texts are adorned with some of the best photographs of the era from well-known photographers like Andreas Kalogeropoulos and Michalis Pappas.
