About Footy Matters
Welcome!
Footy Matters is an online football magazine like no other. Footy Matters aims to bring you sharp commentary on the latest news coming out of football, providing eccentric insight, views and opinions away from the mainstream.
Our aim is to inform and educate the readers with well researched and well written content you will seldom find in the crowded football blog-osphere that will appeal to the Thinking Football fan.
Nothing matters more than football. Not the team we support or the result. These fuel our passion and determine our mood but what matters is football provides this and we want more!
It is born out of passion and driven by desperation – we may not pick the team or put in the performance on the pitch but we do have an opinion and Footy Matters is the place to share, discuss and debate every aspect of the beautiful game.
Football, like no other aspect of society is fiercely tribal. We all support a team, local or successful, with an allegiance hard to fathom.
Footy Matters encourages this support but goes further; we are forever Thinking Football, as it pumps incessantly through our blood, we recognise it is a true love that goes beyond a team or the sport. It is an art form we identify with and appreciate despite the colour of the strip or the result.
Footy Matters will certainly appeal to the fan not afraid to Think. Whether we wake up miserable from the latest defeat or sat at work gloating with success, Footy Matters represents fans who want to take ownership of the sport and express their passions in an articulate way.
Football transcends across all aspects of our lives and here at Footy Matters you can find all the resources you need to ensure your passion is supported and shared.
So come inside and join the one team we can all be proud to shout about!
