We’re not a newsroom. We’re not a PR machine. We’re not here to give you the sanitised, corporate version of the game you love.
This Is Football is exactly what it sounds like – a place built by genuine football fans, for genuine football fans.
No agenda. No spin. Just the beautiful game, covered the way your mates would cover it.
Who We Are
This Is Football was built out of frustration.
Frustration with outlets that bury the good stuff behind paywalls. Frustration with coverage that feels like it was written by someone who’s never actually stood on a terrace, argued about a formation at half time, or felt that gut-punch when your team bottles it in stoppage time.
We wanted something different. A place that covers football the way fans actually talk about it passionately, honestly, and without taking itself too seriously.
So we built it.
Based in the UK and obsessed with the game in all its mad, beautiful, chaotic glory – from the Premier League to the lower leagues, from transfer deadline day chaos to those random Tuesday night European nights that remind you why you fell in love with football in the first place.
What We Cover
Breaking News – The stories that matter, as they happen. Transfer Rumours – The ones worth your time (and the ones that are absolutely not happening, but we’ll cover anyway). Match Coverage – Results, reaction, and the moments that had everyone talking. Opinion & Debate – Hot takes, unpopular opinions, and the arguments your group chat’s been having for years. Throwbacks – Because football history is too good not to revisit. Quizzes & Interactives – Think you know your football? Prove it.
Our Promise
We cover every club. We take the mick out of every club. And we back every club when they deserve it.
No tribalism. No agendas. Just football.
If you’re a fan of the game, proper football, not the corporate version – you’re in the right place.
