We’re underway at #footycon25 with our lead organiser Dr Gary James giving our delegates an introduction to the conference & the proceedings of the next 2 days


Thanks to World Cup Rambling for coming to our conference and we hope you had a great first time attending the conference! We hope you can join us again 🙂 🎥:Sport in History


After a wonderful time at #footycon25, we’re taking a little time to reflect on all the wonderful people we met at FootyCon. Up first is Tim Mills, a co-winner of the day 1 prize for best paper (sponsored by Routledge Sport, Leisure, and Tourism) on his work to celebrate 120 years of Carlisle United

As you may have seen on here or other social media channels, we were at #footycon25 to cover FootyCon in Belfast this past weekend & caught up with some reputable names in academia. One of these was Professor Fiona Skillen, who spoke to us about her co-authored book A Most Unsuitable Game.
