I want to share a website I've created, which I've put a lot of time and effort into for some time now. It contains a map of England along with zoomed-in maps of larger cities and/or areas of England with more than one football club. The maps are HUGE and the site takes a bit of time to load even on broadband, but I think it's well worth it for passioniate football fans. I had wanted to find such a thing a while back, but unfortunately could not find it anywhere on the Internet. So I created it. It shows all Premiership, Coca Cola Football League, and Nationwide Football Conference teams, so there are quite a few teams shown. Each team's stadium is marked with a little soccer ball on the maps. Please let me know what you think, and let others know about it. I really want to promote the site and share it with others. Thanks much. The site is http://footballclubs.dyndns.org/

This is very interesting. Really helps contextualize some of the local derby rivalries, etc. Congratulations. Looks like a lot of hard work went into it. Of course, it took a gooner to get it done.

First good thing Ive seen a gooner do in a while. :D
Good site, probably helpful to the Septics who dont know how to regionalise some of the football teams and derbies.

When I first really got into the English football scene a few years back I spent hours looking for all of this information. I wish I would have come across this 3 years ago :D Nicely done anyhow.

Thanks to all for your kind words. It was a labor of love. I'm continuing to add enhancements to the site, so please check back every so often. Please bookmark, pass to friends, and generally help me promote it. I'd really appreciate it. I'm always reachable at yabewatch@mail.com. Thanks again.

Does anyone just spend time playing around on the site when bored? I absolutely love it.

I have come to the realization that keeping my stadium map site alive and up-to-date is going to be a lot of work. Sure, it took a tremendous effort to to initially get the site off the ground, but it's also going to take a lot of effort to keep all of the club info up-to-date. After spending all of the time I did on it, it'd be a terrible shame if it went to waste. I won't be able to keep the site running entirely on my own. I will need some key people to help me maintain and promote it. I need a few serious, passionate footballers. If you know of any who may be interested in helping keep the site alive, please let me know. Thanks!

Help in doing what exactly? I'd be willing to help but my programming knowledge isn't too strong.

Thanks for asking. Sorry, I should have been clearer. I want to continue doing the techie side, but I need people to help me keep the info up-to-date on the site and to help promote it. I've had quite a few responses from people regarding helping me with it. I need to sort through things a bit, but if I can count on your help, let me know. Basically, what I'm envisioning is that I can create a login admin page for people and let you make updates to the site as you hear details about clubs change (relegation/promotion changes, stadium changes, address changes, etc.). Just let me know....thanks.
