That's great to hear, Morten.

'A superb account of what we were thinking, wearing, eating and saying 40 years ago. It is a people's history of football, and of Britain.' Lovely review of my new book Fanzine in @LateTackle magazine. Much appreciated!

Cheers Kenny - discovered it while trawling for something to watch recently and was suitably delighted!

Thanks so much, Rick.

This lovely item is 10 years old today. A decade of delights and conversations about floodlights, outfield players in goal and spotting grounds from trains.

En route to Wembley Stadium for the regular @thefsa.bsky.social X FA Structured Dialogue meeting. Lots of fan-related issues on the agenda. Really enjoying @danielgraywriter.bsky.social's Fanzine, especially the inextricable link between fanzines and the fan movement 💪💪

It's Thursday and that can mean only one thing; a new blog is up. This week we are back down the smoke, this time to celebrate a new arrival to the fanzine family, one that weights in at 272 pages in the first edition, bet they don't keep that up!

A fantastic evening last night with @stanchionbooks.bsky.social celebrating the launch of @danielgraywriter.bsky.social FANZINE!

In the 1980s life as a football supporter was a demoralising experience.

While some fans turned to violence, many more turned to typewriters, Tippex and staple guns to create a movement that transformed a bleak time into a hopeful one.

This year has been brilliant for football literature, and here's another banger from @danielgraywriter.bsky.social

@danielgraywriter.bsky.socialSep 23, 2026, 9:00 PM

Ah cheers, Dave. That's very much appreciated.

(I know this is all a bit grubby, but think of it as subverting the system from within. Or something)
