Welcome to The Purist’s Football Blog

Football the way the God’s intended. 


“And on the 8th day God created football, and he saw that it was good.”


It’s called The Beautiful Game for a reason. Beautiful to watch, beautiful to play, beautiful to…talk about. Or at least, that’s how it should be.

That is why we’re stripping away all of the ulterior agenda, all of the media sensationalism, all of the bandwagoning and just talking honestly about the sport we love.

We care not for gamesmanship, misleading press conferences, or dodgy third clauses in a players contract.

We care not for “ITK” transfer sources, Mourinho’s triple reverse psychology, or how much Neymar’s father makes when the crow flies eastward on the 3rd sunday of the Arabian calendar.

All we care about is 90 minutes, 11 vs 11, one ball. Football in its purist form.

We hope you enjoy our content, and at the very least find it a breath of fresh air in the now-tainted, horribly saturated world of football coverage.
