Swimming against 30 years of discourse but I think the phrase 'football's coming home' originated at the 1966 World Cup because the tournament was being held in England (the supposed 'home' of football), rather than the trophy being won by England. See Times article from 1966.
Next Weds 10 June we welcome @jamie-gemmell.bsky.social (KCL) to our seminar, who will present their paper titled ‘John Satia and the 1731 ban on Black apprenticeship’
Register below to join us either in person at the IHR or online from 17:30.
