Anyone bought the first publication? Highly recommended it if you haven't.

Works on a pay what you like basis. Some really good pieces, including the opening one on FC St Pauli.

Thread fail Jimbo.

Looks interesting though. Might get the first issue tomorrow.

Got the link earlier too. Just ordered a full-year subsription. The format seems like a carbon-copy of a swedish magazine called Offside.

It looks pretty awesome to me. Can't be any harm in football writing that doesn't suck. I'm going to pay a nominal sum for the first edition and have a look through it - thanks for the link James.

Have you guys read it? Worth a few bob?

You can pay what you like for issue zero. It's well worth it. I think im going to subscribe for the future prints. There's a feature with Dennis Bergkamp in the next one.
