But it's mainly you and this mad obsession.
And I don't know, it's a welcome trend, I would suggest, but... Yeah, yeah, pain in the backside, doing those endnotes, because I was taking notes all the way through, like, you know, you can imagine folders of notes, but I was annotating some of them and not others, so when I did go to do the endnotes, it took weeks and weeks just to do that thing, and I don't... Bar scholars or other...
football journalists or historians or whatever, they won't, like, look, I never read the end notes in a book.
But, yeah, it is just to show the trail and to, you know, to anybody who comes afterwards, you know, that they'll have a leg up in doing further research and, yeah, just to be a bit more professional about it.
Yeah, yeah.
What comes to mind, just because HH is in my head, I think about him and his standards of excellence and all the things he did, you know, the four inches or whatever they talk about.
You'd wonder how much difference any of that makes, but it's more just to give a sense of calm or confidence to people.
And similarly a book, like you'd look at a book, like I say, we'd never as a reader read the end notes, but it just, it gives you a sense of confidence, okay, there's a bit of work gone into this or, you know, he's done, he's the groundwork, you know.
Yeah, that's a great coup.
Eamon is, you know, he's a...
joined to broadcasting.
He's an inspiration as a journalist and football writer to the seminal books, Only a Game and A Strange Kind of Glory.
He authored them.
So yeah, he's great to do.
I was on his podcast for seven or eight years reporting on Spanish football and Spanish culture.
So he's a good one.
Richard Fitzpatrick, congratulations.
Thanks.
Join in the obsession.
It is beautiful.
