Can you imagine watching football in an Indian Ocean paradise?

That's what Ben Jackson does in our latest article, as he covers the history of football in Seychelles and recounts their greatest triumph.

🎙️We're on the hunt for our next round of podcast topics.

We'll cover anything related to football history and heritage - a pretty wide scope!

Club histories. Famous players. Lost clubs. There's no story we won't tell. The more niche, the better.

What story do you want to hear on our podcast next?

Can't quite believe it's been a year since my book on #AFCON history was published by @pitchpublishing.bsky.social

Thanks to all those who gave me a chance to rant on about the greatest international football tournament around 🏆

Hoping to end this year with a trip to Morocco for #AFCON2025 🇲🇦

Should be a good AFCON in Morocco, although will be strange without Ghana.

Think DRC are dark horses alongside South Africa 🇿🇦 🇨🇩

Of sides still looking for a first AFCON win, Burkina Faso for me have the best chance 🇧🇫

As we're new to BlueSky, here's a re-post of one of our first threads explaining how heritage and football interact with each other.

It offers a small insight into our views and objectives and will give you an idea of the type of content we'll talk about.

Enjoy! 🧵

My debut book on the History of the Africa Cup of Nations is available to buy, covering the tournament from inception in the 1950s to Senegal's win in 2022!
