Terracist

Welcome to Terracist

It's not 1996 anymore, so you can't see a little animated man digging a hole to inform you that things here are very much a work in progress. But that is exactly what they are. Terracist is undergoing what I am assured is called a 'soft launch', a term coined by lazy web designers everywhere to buy us some time to make things work as they should.

What you'll get here, when the site is finished, is a blog dedicated to reporting and opining on the business-side of the greatest game in the world. A professional interest, and personal desire to learn more led me to the epiphany of starting this website, and six days later, here we are. I hope to be able to call on my time both as a fan, and as someone who worked for, and intends to forge a career in the football industry. I'll also be able to offer the perspective of a football fan outside of the European hotbed, having spent a season out on loan from my university in England, studying in Japan, where football - like everything else - is very different.

There is no reason why this site should carry a single voice though. I'd be grateful and fascinated by anything you should like to contribute, or if you'd like to join in the discussions via the Terracist mailing list, you'll be made to feel most welcome there too.

So, mind the scaffolding for now, and perhaps subscribe to the RSS feed (handily linked above) for more updates.
