I think I first found them as they were the front page linked football site on some of the main web browsers a few years ago. I am pretty sure some people who have written for them have gone on to some of the bigger football podcasts and the athletic and the likeI’d never heard of them before you mentioned them, sound like some **** website you’d see on Newsnow.
You talk about them like they were some encyclopaedia for football articles and analysis who have just started going downhill when I’d wager nobody else has heard of them/use them
It has definitely got worse. I really assumed it was far more known that it seems to be due to that period I mentioned where when you clicked on a football story from a homepage (pretty sure on windows) it took you there. The fact is doesn’t anymore is also likely related to the quality decline (as to it being cause or effect it isn’t relevant)
It was just my go to for a while. More opinion pieces and coverage on smaller (or at least all) teams than newspaper websites for example
