While things on the writing front haven’t completely picked back up yet — I’ve had a few original pieces pop out of my brain recently — things on the design front have really picked up a bit. In addition to the recently announced Saints Matchday Poster project eating up gobs of my time, there’s also been […]

The third “WSOTP Podcast Derby”of the season took place on Sunday, and this time a trophy was on the line between D.J.’s Tottenham and Jeremy’s Chelsea in the Capital One Cup Final. So you can expect that to feature prominently on this week’s Pondcast, alongside the shuffle in and around the Champions League spots that took place […]

Back in one location after last week’s remote episode, the latest episode of the Pondcast is a very Euro-centric episode. A dramatic weekend unfolded in the Premier League, at least as far as the refereeing went.

This week’s episode is something of a surprise milestone for the WSOTP Podcast — this is our 50th overall episode!

I already felt like my cup was full with the increased availability of Premier League coverage this season, but that’s feeling even more full given that the Capital One Cup and European midweek fixtures regularly […]

The midpoint of the European season is often one of the most jam-packed, chaotic and turbulent portions of the yearly footballing calendar. Between the January transfer window, scheduling congestion between all of the major competitions — especially in England where there is not a winter break — and under performing clubs starting to realize that there’s hardly […]

Forget this writing gig… I’m going to become a bookie. Because if I’m really ever going to make some money out of my life long love affair with soccer, that’s clearly the best avenue. In order to get paid to play, I’d have to be good (I’m not). In order to manage, I should probably […]

As 2011 winds to a close and the dawn of a new year is upon us, I imagine many of you are in the final stages of planning for the annual — and often eventually pointless — ritual called “New Year’s Resolutions”. Every year, millions around the world make commitments to achieve personal goals over […]

Despite the fact that the holidays are generally a festive time of the year, we have extra reason to celebrate on Christmas 2011: wrongsideofthepond.com crossing the 20,000 unique visitor milestone. I devoted an entire post — and even unveiled an official URL — to commemorate eclipsing the 10,000 mark, so I lament to report that I’ve only […]
