Not a bad stab at
giving a history of football from its origins to the present day
(although you might want to give the first exhibit, the lamentable
Football Physics Laboratory, a miss). The exhibition mostly comprises
information panels and interesting interactive screens, with the odd
dummy here and there, but disappointingly few bits of memorabilia. Not
surprisingly, much is made of England’s World Cup victory in 1966. The
final two exhibits are a bit of a letdown: the eponymous Hall of Fame,
with lifelike but few models of famous footballers such as David
Seaman, Alan Shearer and co (but, surprisingly, no Michael Owen), and
the section where you get to play on footie video games.
