An excellent exhibition on football fanzins just opened at Leeds Libraries. Well worth a visit, and nice to see some Chesterfield content in there too. ✌️

It's #FootballShirtFriday for the Bobby Moore Fund today.

I'm going green with a classic @chesterfieldfc.bsky.social and one for @volodymyr1866.bsky.social.

I gave the ChatGPT thing a go and look at what has come out! 😂

I'm finding football autobiographies from the 1940s really fascinating.

Tommy Lawton phoning the local paper from a phone box to find out if he's in the England team, and Frank Swift and his 30cm finger span.

Plenty of applause for the club today. Popped down to pick up a signed Tanton match shirt, my lads favourite (great service from Josh throughout). Then met a few of the players in the hub. They are a great bunch.

No doubt a frustrating result yesterday, but I think this work by Martin Creed sums up my thoughts.

After messing around with a bit of lino cut printing from an old CFC scarf, I've now turned this old CFC logo into a window sticker.

You can grab one here for £2 + postage. 🚙

Do you have a favourite turnstile?

I've been doing a bit of lino printing from a 1980s Chesterfield scarf this afternoon. The old designs are definitely the best.

It might have been a narrow defeat today but on the bright side we got a brand new Paul Cook noise! 🤣

I refuse to believe that the 3-2 comeback win at Bradford is just over 20 years ago!

Folan brace, Shinner penalty, Campbell-Ryce unplayable on the wing. Happy days.

I'm really excited to have picked up a set of the 1905 books 'Association Football and the Men Who Made it'. Gorgeous books and puts you right back to where the game was over 100 years ago. 📖

16 games in. League appearances so far.

I still have a few copies of my A3 print of the 20th anniversary of Glynn Hursts epic goal vs Luton.

Designed by the great folk The Graphic Bomb, they are all hand signed by Glynn and only £7.
