Write for England WorldCupBlog

I’m not quitting, and neither is Rob. But we both have other blogging commitments and so could definitely use some help here on England WCB. Especially as we begin the buildup to the big football show that is World Cup 2010.
Much like Fabio Capello, we won’t settle for just anyone. We need someone with an excellent grasp of the English language, who can write with insight and a sense of humour, and who can write at least two or three times a week.
It’s not a paid position, but it is a chance to write for a big audience. Especially come World Cup 2010 time. If you’re interested in applying please send an email to daryl[at]theoffside[dot]com with “England WCB” in the subject line, and a short writing sample about something Three Lions related. Preferably something creative and not just a simple match report.
Fernando,
This blog already exists, so it’s a case of improving an existing blog rather than adding another.
Re: autonomous countries… If a capable writer applied to write about autonomous countries, we’d very likely give them a blog.

Fernando, you’re an idiot. What would be the point of having a World Cup Blog if you did not cover one of the most widely followed national teams in the world? Not to mention that with the right writer, even subject matter done to death elsewhere can be original and have its own personality here, just as Daryl & Rob have done so well to this point.
Oh, and:

daryl, did you ever think of advertising The Offside and The WCB on FSC, Setanta etc? It would be costly but a couple more advertisements on these sites would get some more income and idk how you feel about “Raising the Rent” for current Ad-Takers
Something To Think About,

Guiseppe,
It’s not my decision, as I handle just the blogs and the content. But I think it’s safe to say that advertising on FSC and Setanta would be a bit too pricey.
If you feel like dipping into your pocket to buy some advertising time for us though, we’ll definitely take it!
Bill: thank you for calling me an idiot, Jesus loves you just the same.

Daryl… thank you for responding to my suggestion regarding Spanish Autonomous Countries — I feel that it would be a great Blog to read about, I really don’t know the inner-workings of this Blog, but IMO, you guys who do such an outstanding job as it is with all these International Blogs should really look into that.
Not Directed at you Daryl but to some of your readers:
But apparently anytime someone expresses an opinion here, he is referred to as an idiot… whatever happened to free thought? Anything that doesn’t go “along” with the status quo gets reduced to being stupid?

Duh, opinions and free thought are for idiots. Someone tell me what to think, quick.
Daryl, how much would it cost to purchase the website? And if you don’t know I would apreciate it if you could find out.

But with the wealth of England NT blogs out there, including FourTwoTwo & the Guardian’s Sports Blog… do we really need another Blog dedicated to England’s NT?
I would be more interested in reading a Blog dedicated to the Autonomous countries in Spain and their national teams. There is absolutely nothing out there dedicated to these countries… What about a Blog dedicated to Peru & Bolivia?
