Here is a list of my current football-related favourite things, not necessarily related to branding or impact - but maybe so. I prepared and scheduled this newsletter to go out while I'm on a holiday break, and thought it would be fun to make it a different one in honour of long summer days, resting and resetting.
Watching football things
👨🏻🦱 Ted Lasso. If you still haven't watched this amazing show, this is the sign you've been waiting for to do so.
🏴 Welcome to Wrexham. A fun and entertaining show that can be more addictive than you imagine. It got six Emmy nominations and the second season is in the making!
Following ‘football culture’ content
⚡ Mundial magazine. The “Mundial Moodboard” is one of my top favorite things on the internet.
🤌🏽 NSS Sports. Take Mundial-esque style but make it Italian.
💅 Indivisa. Football culture with women at the centre.
👕 Cult Kits. I want them all.
💎 Off the Pitch Archive. Fashion and football. Yes!
🪡 The Football Gal. Works of art in the form of embroidered football jerseys.
🖼️ Louis Bever. A photographer that recreates classic paintings with football jerseys.
🎞️ Analog Football. Film and football? Say no more.
👌🏽 90's Football. The one thread (😬 ) still holding X Twitter together.
Voices promoting ‘the good football’
🗣️ Steven Caulker. Using his story to change other people's.
🗣️ Maggie Murphy. The leader of a football team that is literally changing the game through equality
🗣️ Pau Gasol. Replace the foot for a basket, but still worth reading his content!
I have also been enjoying connecting with people on LinkedIn who share the same interest and passion for promoting football for good.
💫 And then there is Jackson Irvine's Instagram, which is kind of all of the above in one.
That's it for today. It was fun sharing my favourites and, if you enjoyed it, maybe this could become a recurring segment. Don't be shy and reply to this email or leave a comment sharing your favourites too.
Happy rest of the summer! 🌴
