A Burnout Summer Break

Posted byfootballtouristlondonerPosted inUncategorized

I am taking a break from the blog to recharge over the summer and sort out some outstanding issues in my personal life.

Writing an average of a blog a week for most of the season has left me completely burnt out. In the final weeks of the regular season I was unable to enjoy the matches with the stress of making sure I had the right pictures and notes ready for the upcoming blog. Enjoying football has been one of the few certainties throughout my life so far and to see that changing is not something I can just sit back and let happen.

I am going to many games at this summer’s Women’s Euro, including England’s opening match of the tournament (against Austria at Old Trafford on July 6th), but there will be no blogs from any of those matches. My experience at the Women’s Euro this summer will be my own as I try to reconnect with the joy of the beautiful game that I have loved since childhood.

All things being well and with certain things in my life getting sorted this summer, I am aiming to be back blogging Premier League and EFL matches once again for the 2022/23 season. See you then.

I'm a Londoner by birth, but I now live up in the North West. So I'm taking this opportunity to explore the football of the North and blog about my experiences as a neutral. For most of the matches I am a neutral, but when I have an allegiance to one of the teams I flag that up on my post. I have never been one to do reccies for the games I go to. I just pick a game that looks cool look up the route on google maps and head to the ground. Sometimes I buy the match ticket in advance, but not always. The Blog charts my experience as a mainly first-time visitor to the teams and grounds of the North West football landscape. All opinions in the blog are my own and you are welcome to disagree with them.
