In solidarity with "View from the...." fanzine brand.

An excellent reason to go to Leeds! 😉. Next Friday, the @leedslibraries.bsky.social & @britishlibrary.bsky.social football fanzine expo, Voice of the Fans, opens. Cracking events leedsinspired.co.uk/collection/v... Quality video. Nailed what 'zines are about. Can't wait. Is that the programme? NO😅

Oh yeah! It's @danielgraywriter.bsky.social at @yorkfestofideas.bsky.social. Looking forward to booking on this celebration of football. You around @nickquantrill.bsky.social?

Top fellas. Now, get on the beach!!

Yesterday encapsulated our season. First half, full of promise, good pass and move, pace, well-worked goal & chances. Second half, not so much. And frustrating to finish 8th again. But hey, they're some cracking lads in a fab club. Have a grand summer recharging, fellas

So pleased to award our #FerribyFanzine Player of the Season to Ben Bottomley. Every game he's made some top saves...and again today. A top quality keeper. Bravo.

For one past the time this season it's #UTV

Reminder to nominate your Non-League Away Day of the Year, supported by @thefsa.bsky.social & Non-League Paper surveymonkey.com/r/non-league-a…www.surveymonkey.com/r/non-league...09

New blog post. Depending on how you look at it a story about the beauty of non League fandom or the perils of "Tired and emotional" late night forays onto eBay. Enjoy. footballfanzineculture.blog/2025/04/24/n...

Looking forward to awarding this on Saturday. The #FerribyFanzine team have had a conflab and decided on our Player of the Season. There will be white smoke above Heaton Stan on Sat as we announce our winner.

Get down to Leeds Library from May 9 to see their new national expo on football fanzine culture, in partnership with the @britishlibrary.bsky.social Honoured that our cover by the late great Tony Husband features on the poster and to have contributed a few zines thefsa.org.uk/news/new-exh...

I am very proud that I got a chance to contribute to this. And waiting (impatiently) for it to arrive!

Brilliant idea! How about the Importance of Being Earnest at @bracknelltownfc.bsky.social?

@daveproudlove.bsky.social Just came across this, Dave Might be interesting for your research

Pleased with that 10k down to Spurn Lighthouse and back, yesterday. Not quite a Ferriby green on the door but it'll do.

#UTV

Get yourself along. Let’s make it a cauldron @vftae.bsky.social @thenpl.bsky.social

When in the Station Inn on Bev Road, it's got to be a pint of Yorkshire Brewhouse's Villagers. 👇Serving suggestion with our VFTAE, obvs. Order our zine via vftae.bigcartel.com/product/view...

Great to see football stadium architecture be celebrated...but this stand is at risk in the @c20society.bsky.social's latest list - Newcastle's 1972-3 monster East Stand c20society.org.uk/wp-content/u...

What a quality read on fanzine activism. It should be no surprise that fanzines are at the heart of St Pauli. Thank you for sharing @garyhammondperc.bsky.social. Up the Hamburg fanzines, @altona93fanzines.bsky.social. bundesletter.substack.com/p/the-mother...

Was great for pics off the pitch on Tues night at Ponte Colls, which is great because it wasn't so good for us on the pitch.

Hull City on film expo, down Princes Ave 👍💪 lowerblock.com/articles/hul...

There's a vote over on the other place that shan't be named. x.com/VFTAE/status...

Carlisle fans singing, yesterday "Torquay Away Ole Ole Ole" Been there, done that with Ferriby 💚. Though for Carlisle, it might be Torquay AND Truro (and vice versa) @tufcofficial.bsky.social

"Unleash the Sussex machine” should find its way on to a football banner on the south coast, in the that county. Perhaps on another trip to @worthingfc.bsky.social. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Amazing that it's 10 years today since Ferriby beat Wrexham in one of the greatest games at Wembley. Memories that last a lifetime. youtube.com/watch?v=ztOe...

Up the @thefsa.bsky.social, now on BlueSky. #FF #FollowFriday if that's still a thing.
