Spring cleaning ... in September

It's been very quiet around these parts during the international break - but in our defence there's not been a lot to report on and, in any case, we've been far from idle, having taken the opportunity to undertake a complete refresh of our sidebar.

Any blogs that hadn't been updated for over two months have fallen victim to the cull - we've lamented it before, but the ephemeral nature of so many football blogs is a real shame. We've also added a large number of new sites to the list. For all new general football blogs and for all those for clubs from outside the Premier League, we're indebted to The Two Unfortunates, who have proven adept at sniffing out the best amateur football writing on t'internet.

So, here's a list of all the officially endorsed new faces to our blogroll:
