Eliott: Website co-creator and writer
When we were first trying to come up with a name for this blog, we started by looking at our initials. . Our initials are “EH” and “DT” respectively. We rearranged these letters to become “The D.” “The D” is the semi-circle just outside of the goalkeeper box. This is the line that all defenders have to be behind when the opposition is taking a penalty. When we were searching for a name for this site, we wanted something related to the content and our own lives.
Hi, my name is Eliott and I am the writer of this website and a football lover. I discovered football at age 6 and have never looked back. I’m disabled but that hasn’t stopped me from playing in various tournaments and loving the sport. I am a passionate Newcastle United fan, I hope you enjoy looking at the content as much as I have enjoyed making it. I am aiming to add at least one piece of content a month, hope to see you there. I hope that I can move you to loving the game of football as much as I do.

​Hi, My name is Daniel. When Eliott approached me with a vision of a football blog; I saw potential in his writing, and I was always interested in making a website, and decided to help him achieve his goals. We worked together, I built the platform for Eliott's content and he provided the articles. From a young age I have always wanted to build a website from the ground up, and help my friend express their ideas.
