Hey everyone, I’m currently taking a break from work before coming back with fresh ideas and new plans for the 22/23 season. I will be doing some transfer analysis and scouting work throughout the summer but nothing like what Cal and I produced over the course of the January window (that nearly killed us)!
Next season, I will be taking courses in scouting and coaching alongside opening a Patreon where you’ll be able to sign up to a raft of additional content.
I’d like to thank you all for your support this season. It’s been a tough one. Losing my dad was impossibly challenging but it has only served to further crystallise my focus on producing quality content orientated around West Ham and football more generally. We didn’t have the best relationship but he did give me the gift of this silly obsession, the least I can do is make the most of that.
Take a moment to have a look back through the work that I produced this season if you’d like. Maybe share it with someone who might enjoy it or with someone who could help me improve what I do. Feedback is always appreciated.
Have a great summer x
