The Armchair Fan: Football's Other Face

The Armchair Fan seeks to tell you the stories from the football world which you will probably have missed in the papers. Not all stories have been confirmed before publishing and some will even have been deliberately made up. Which makes it very much like a tabloid paper anyway...

The Armchair Fan is not intended to cause offence with any comments. There is no intentional targetting of teams or individuals; however, if you are in the 'real' papers more, there is more chance you will end up here. The site is meant as a lighthearted look at footballing issues, and we hope you will find something you like within these pages. At the very least, we hope you think it is pretty.

TAF was started in the close season 2008 and, workload permitting, will hopefully remain as a satirical outlet where people can blow off some footballing steam. TAF is very grateful to those who have contributed to the site, both in terms of writing and maintainance, and is especially grateful to you, for reading.

If you can see the funny side of football, you should write for The Armchair Fan. Not all submissions will definitely by used, and small bits of selective editing may be needed before articles can go up on the site. We're very nice guys though, and we'd love to hear what you have to say.

Please send an article of between 150 and 500 words to the-armchair-fan@hotmail.co.uk, or if you want to ask anything else, please contact us. Please include your name so we can give you credit for your work, so you can brag to all your friends. Unfortunately we are unable to pay you for your work.
