Welcome to my site on the history of football, the first page starts with the formation of the leagues and F.A.cup up until the present time.

I hope the following pages are as educational and interesting to you as they have been for me, so click on and step back in time to enjoy the history of football.

The first section is about the beginning of the Football Association (F.A.)in 1863, rules of the game,the introduction of the F.A.cup,and the formation of the league.It continues with important events from the early days, such as the start of the home internationals and the 'auld enemy'games,and finishes with all the cup final results,winners of the league,and every International game played by the four home countries from to 1871 to 1900.
