The FA wrote the rules of football in 1863. The rules you actually play by? A greenhouse. In Sheffield. 1858. Two mates from the cricket club went for a walk one autumn afternoon. They wanted something to do when the cricket season ended. So they started a football club. The first one on earth. Their headquarters was a greenhouse. Their pitch was the field next to it. There was nobody else to play. So they split into married against singles. Then they wrote rules. No hacking. No tripping. No holding. Free kicks. Throw-ins. Corner kicks. The crossbar. Heading. Eleven players. Ninety minutes. Referees. All Sheffield. When they played London in 1866 and headed the ball, London laughed at them. Nobody's laughing now. In 1867 Sheffield hosted the world's first football competition. Four years before the FA Cup. The trophy went missing for 130 years. A Scottish antiques dealer found it. Worth over £100,000 today. When football turned professional, Sheffield refused. They chose the game over the money. And the game left them behind. William Prest died at fifty-two. His gravestone was removed from the cemetery. Nathaniel Creswick died in October 1917. Exactly sixty years after founding the club. In 2004, FIFA gave Sheffield FC the Order of Merit. The only other club to receive it? Real Madrid. Eighty thousand seats. One of the greatest clubs on earth. Sheffield FC play in the ninth tier of English football. Two thousand seats. Every corner kick. Every header. Every ninety minutes. Two friends. One autumn walk. A greenhouse. Sheffield started it all. The beautiful game had humble beginnings. So do we. Your support keeps us on the pitch. Be part of us. proudofus.co.uk/support Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧

Excellent advice here having been in this position myself. Day 1 your world is collapsing. Day 2-7 I threw myself into 16 hour panic work days. Slowing down is actually speeding up. In the moment it’s so hard to see that clearly. Reach out to others for support & advice.

Soccer careers are volatile by nature. Clubs get new ownership. Coaches get fired. Budgets get cut. Strategies change overnight. I've seen incredibly talented people lose their jobs through no fault of their own. But…when you lose a job or miss an opportunity, you also

I've reviewed hundreds of projects on behalf of @APFAnalysis over the years. Sometimes you get one that just blows you away.... One thing you'll get from ours vs others is the opportunity to build a project as you take the course, submit your work and have it reviewed!

@HenshawAnalysis We've had people with 0 idea of what an IDP looks like take courses and gain full-time employment within 12 months using their projects as the launchpad. It's not one-size fits all

@HenshawAnalysis It is - especially those who can't take 3+ years for a full time degree and internships. That being said (and I know I myself am biased here) I think education it still v important

@Zonal_Marking Hopefully, but six in a row is concerning for a league still focused on growth. Larger issue for me then invincible season.

@Zonal_Marking Sort of my point though they were so dominant this season that it was boring. Football is more exciting in my opinion than high scoring sports because every single goal has a huge impact. Same can be said for individual games, you want the feeling that it truly means something

@MattDoyle76 They are that much more valuable a lot of people (including Loudoun) separate them as different entities entirely.

Easiest decision you’ll make this year is to vote for Bouchy!
