About TodayInFootball

Football news is louder than it's ever been. Every day brings a flood of headlines built to make you click, arguments manufactured to make you angry, and rumours dressed up as fact. It's easy to spend an hour reading and come away knowing less than when you started.

We built TodayInFootball as the calm alternative. One page, the stories that genuinely matter today, told plainly and ranked by importance — so you can understand the day in football in about five minutes, then get on with your life.

What we refuse to do

Our standards are easiest to explain by what we leave out. We don't do clickbait, manufactured outrage, or rage-bait headlines. We don't treat a rumour as news. We don't pad a story to keep you scrolling, and we never use a question as a headline to bait a click. If something doesn't matter, it doesn't go on the page.

What you get instead is signal, not noise: what happened, who's involved, and why it's worth knowing — in plain language, with the original sources a click away.

Where our stories come from

We read across the football press — the BBC, the Guardian, the Athletic, Sky, ESPN and many more — every hour of the day. When several trusted outlets report the same story, that's a strong signal it matters, and we'll show you how many are covering it. Every story links back to the original reporting, because the people who broke the news deserve the credit and the visit.

Who we are

TodayInFootball is an independent team that cares about two things: getting it right, and respecting your time. We're not owned by a club, a league, or a media giant, which means we have no agenda beyond telling you what actually happened. Our judgement about what matters is ours, and we hold ourselves to the standards on this page.
