biographical,biographies,biographies and history,biography and history,sports and outdoors,sports and recreation,transportation, World Cup Cortinas Whatever happened to the 1970 World Cup Squad's Ford Cortina 1600Es? And how footballers bought better cars when they earned more money and no longer owned the same motors that your mum and dad drove. In 1970 something very remarkable happened. Not only had England qualified for the World Cup in Mexico because they were defending champions, but most important of all Ford had loaned every squad member the greatest saloon car in the world. From Gordon Banks at the back to Geoff Hurst at the front they all got a Ford Cortina 1600E. So what we have here then is a truly confusing book. It's slightly about football, but also about cars too. Footballers and cars. Footballers and their cars. Why George Best could never get enough Jaguar E-Types and just how big is David Beckham's garage? Superficially it seems that as footballers became better paid, the games became less interesting and their names much harder to pronounce. From essentially being working class grafters whose first car was the same bus as the fans used to get to the ground, they seem to have become prima donnas with cars that cost more than most supporters could reasonably earn in a year, a decade or possibly a lifetime. Here awarding winning motoring writer and one footed, right sided goal hanger James Ruppert (Walthamstow Inter Estate League Cup Winner 1975) explains the professional footballer's complicated relationship with their cars. From the times when they would travel to games with the fans.
