That's it, bye!

Dear readers.
Eagle-eyed followers of this blog will know that I’ve tried to throw in the towel once before already but this time it’s gonna be final.
I say this for two reasons: one because I’ve just joined my first non-league love Bristol Manor Farm as club photographer and two because I’m expecting my first child in December, so I imagine I’ll be quite busy.
Once again, my infinite thanks to everyone who’s read, shared and complimented this blog over the last three years. I’ve had a blast doing it.
If you want to keep in touch with me, I’ll still be chatting about football on Daz and I’s new podcast, on my personal Twitter and on the Partizan Bristle Instagram.
See you at the match!

Tom

Just over two weeks ago, myself and my tame Yorkshireman Daz Knapton enjoyed a veritable feast of unlikely football in the form of the CONIFA World Cup, which took place in various grounds in and around London. Because this involved such a quick succession of new ticks, I decided to not bother writing an entry for each and instead use this opportunity to jump on the football podcast bandwagon.

Join us, gentle reader, for some unscripted, unrehearsed, authentic frontier gibberish in the first of an ongoing series of vaguely football-related conversations with your groundhopping heroes (us).
