Loving Tommy Taylors bar. My Old Man had a similar one back in the day. The Bar that never had any beer/spirits in it for more than a couple of days lol. I'm betting that 'wood' can/will peel right off. Gotta love the 70,s..
Glad I'm not the only one noticing. The 70s indeed, was that anything other then appalling in every sense fashion wise?
The big awkward haircuts, skin tight clothing, flares, the colouring, what was with that? Browns, dark shades of brown, greys and blues and beiges and turds. Brown wood, wooden panels here wooden fittings there. Then there’s the carpets, why did everyone want the inside of the house to resemble the local pub? Then the ornaments, loads of ornaments. It looks like your nans front room. Every picture basks of a lazy Sunday morning.
You had the 60s, things were looking cool, a new frontier on the horizon… then the 70s hit and it’s like everyone felt guilty and wanted to pay tribute to 40s and 50s… No wonder the 80s exploded into a fathom of colour and plastic. It’s like the masses finally woke up.
That’s my take on it anyway.

Tommy Taylor is a goal-scoring bastard, and is it me or is his missus about fourteen in that picture?
Ron Harris looks like he’s just been evicted. Good.
Peter Bonetti looks very successful, but the caravan sort of ruins the sporty look.
The most pleasing thing is that most of those front rooms wouldn't have looked out of place in any house in the country at the time. Not a walk-in wardrobe/cinema room/40,000sqm kitchen in sight. Modern football is rubbish.

His wife's hairdresser was clearly a fan of Dan Dare. He's given her a Mekon do

Since the shaved head has been respectable you just don't see the comb over. Shame. Nothing like the sight of 4 feet of hair trailing behind a player - it was like a measure of how fast they were running.

Nice to see the photos - I grew up in the 70s and they were a terrible time for fashion and hair - my youth is documented by photos of me, mum and the upholstery all clad in the same material. It is amazing that I came through those times with any fashion/decor sense at all
