The birth of The Football History Boys

Willkommen...Bienvenue...Welcome

No this isn't the start of a musical number but the start of a new website and running blog on Football History!

During the summer of 2012, towards the end of our first year of university studying History in Swansea, the usual talk of football took a new turn. The recent performances of Lionel Messi and his staggering tally of 73 goals throughout the 2011-12 season sparked off the debate of just who is the greatest player of all-time? Liam posed the question, why not try and work it out for ourselves and make a countdown of the top 50 players ever? The number of 50 quickly multiplied to 250 and the TOP 250 was born.

Since the original idea of a Top 250, the website and group who write on it decided to extend the historical significance toward teams, tournaments, managers and many more categories of the beautiful game for our readers and passers by to get stuck into.

Whether you want something to procrastinate to, to get away from the missus or just because of your love for the game, The Football History Boys is the site for you!

Recently we have had retweets from Guillem Balague, Neil Mellor and scouse impressionist Darren Farley! The Football History Boys are going somewhere!

As well as this we have now gone on to write for the BBC, Soccerlens, The 4th Official and many other football-based websites!

Voting for the final Top 250 ranking has also begun! GET INVOLVED!!!
