Top 5: individual Premier League club blogs
Wednesday, 7 January 2009
In my brief (but ongoing) stint as The Offside's Villa man, I've revisited the opportunity to blog about a single solitary club. I did it back in the day, and it's bloody hard work. It demands more focus, more insight than blogs like twofootedtackle.
There are plenty of phenomenally good individual club blogs out there. Charlton, strangely, have some of the best. But here's my list of the top 5 individual Premier League club blogs, based on conversation, my personal taste and general magnificence (in no particular order):
- White Hart Pain. Nice and simple, with a focus on good copy and conversation rather than aesthetics. Attracts loads of comments.
- Chelsea Blog. Amazingly popular Chelsea blog with a great design, regular updates and a huge amount of comments. Mainly match reports.
- Arseblog. I know a lot of Arsenal fans who love this blog. It is, as they claim in homage to Freddie Ljungberg, "fuckin' excellent".
- Aston Villa Blog. Not just because it's Villa, but because Martin is a relatively new but bloody good blogger. Good insight, regular updates. One to watch.
- C'Mon Yu Irons. Always interesting to get the cockerney view. Loads of ads, but great regular content which attracts a good number of commenters.

great ones. A few of my buddies - Liverpool fans - enjoy Oh You Beauty - it's a great site for straightforward match previews and reviews, and good reports. Any Pompey fans recommend a solid 'under the radar' Portsmouth blog?
Thank you Chris. Nice to know I'm not just rambling bollocks for no reason ;)
Keep up the good work yourself and keep on bigging me up!
