One story ends, another begins

You may or may not remember but last year I launched a new independent football e-zine called the84thminute with lots of grand plans for it to be the fans’ voice of football. However, with increased pressures at work and scoring a writing gig for FourFourTwo Australia I was unable to give it the full attention that it deserved and thus it has gone neglected and now will longer continue.

It was fun whilst it lasted and I thank all those who contributed articles. Whilst it’s sad to not continue with this project, that sadness is balanced out by the fact that I have started a new architecturally based blog call i don’t wear black. And don’t worry this blog will never go neglected.

Living in a fantasy world

Last A-League I hosted a Blogger’s Cup as part of the Fox Sports A-League Fantasy Football competition, which if you didn’t catch the news was won by Eric from the MVFCBlog. Anyway I have decided to give it a miss this year as those crazy guys over at the84thminute have decided to do their own league and tipping competition through the aforementioned Fox Sports site. And this time its just not open to bloggers and people they know, its open to everyone. For all the details check out the84thminute site and see if you can prove that you know more about football than I do, which is probably not that hard.

All systems clear . . . we are go for launch

The time has finally come and the84thminute has finally arrived. Check it out and let me know what you think. And if you feel like contributing, feel free to do so - see one of my previous post for details.

Special thanks to those who have contributed with words and also to my lovely girlfriend, Caroline, whose hard work has seen the site look like I had imagined it.
