In our fifth episode we will be exploring the history of our beloved local football team, Hastings United. We will go all the way back to the clubs origins in the 19th century, discuss the highs and lows of the next 100 years, and reflect on what makes Hastings United such a special club.
What different forms has the club taken over the years? What impact does money have on the lower league game? How has women's football developed in our town and elsewhere? What can Hastings United tell us about the larger history of the beautiful game?
