Foul was a football fanzine that was first published in the United Kingdom in October 1972 by Cambridge University students.[1] It was inspired by Private Eye and is regarded as being the first recognisable football fanzine. 34 issues were published between 1972 and 1976. One of its writers was Chris Lightbown.[2] Stan Hey, Steve Tongue and Andrew Nickolds were also regular contributors.
It was set up at a time when fanzines were being produced for a number of different topics, in order to provide a challenge to the mainstream media.[3] Nearly 10 years after Foul ceased publication a new wave of football fanzines commenced publishing after the Heysel and Bradford disasters. Many, including 'When Saturday Comes', were inspired by Foul.
