This research paper was prepared for the District Six Museum, Cape Town, South Africa, as the basis for their exhibition 'Offside: Kick Out Ignorance - Football Unites, Racism Divides' about racism and discrimination in football.
It traces the pattern of South African footballers’ migration to Britain from 1899 to 2009, setting the players’ experiences against the changing attitudes towards race and migration in both countries and the post-colonial relationship between the countries.
