The Final Whistle?
June 29th, 2011With regret, I’ve decided to take an indefinite break from posting updates to the czechfootball@yahoogroups.com e-mail list, the Czech Football Daily weblog, the @czechfootball Twitter account and the Czech Football Daily Facebook page.
Because of work, I just don’t have the time to post as regularly or as thoroughly as I’d like these days, and I’d rather stop altogether than do a half-hearted job.
I will, however, be keeping the e-mail list and Facebook page running should anyone want to post anything of their own.
When I started the e-mail list back in 1998 (really!), it was almost impossible to find English-language Czech football news online.
Happily, that’s no longer the case, so, if you’re looking for alternatives to this list/blog, you might want to try the following sources:
• The English-language version of Fotbal.cz, the official Czech football association website (translated by my friend John Lowe)
• Benjamin Formela’s Hezky blog
• Mark Smith’s Play Waved On blog
• Martin Vait’s The Men Offside blog
(And I’m sure there are others I don’t know about.)
Finally, thanks to everyone who’s read, contributed to and corrected this list/blog down the years, particularly my good friend John Chadwick — now living in France — who continues to send me his copy of World Soccer every month!
Na shledanou!
Sam
