Hi, I hope I can talk to people who are interested in football here, the current game or the history of it. Also, is anyone familiar with the footballing pyramid of the USSR? I would love to learn more, and was anyone here a matchgoing fan in the USSR? Even better, a player?

A while back Tony from Actually Existing Socialism podcast interviewed an editor for a book about the history of football in the USSR with emphesis on the teams in Moscow if i remember correctly.

You can find the episode here if you want to listen. The book they are talking about is Win or Else: Soviet Football in Moscow and Beyond, 1921-1985 by Larry E. Holmes.
