The (in)Complete Guide to Britpicking and Finer Football Details

by BelmotteTower, ScoatneyHall

This is not fic! This is a non-fiction resource. I hope this resource will be something that is useful to anyone in this fandom who either wants to write fic from the POV of any one of Ted Lasso’s British characters and is not British themselves, or wants to read and write fic and, like Ted, knows nothing about the ins and outs of football and the Premier League.I've helped a number of viewer friends and writer friends with some of these things already, and I’ve also done extensive research for my own fics and had really positive responses to my author notes, so I thought it might be helpful to compile and share some details regarding Britpicking, British culture and football itself for anyone who wants to make use of this resource, either as a viewer, reader or writer!16.11.2022: Latest update - England International Duty and the 2022 World Cup. Part one of a long update about players' potential roles in the World Cup and playing for a national team in general. Very Jamie-centric, so mainly about his future England career, but a few other details for others included, as well as some basics on the current controversy and how to potentially write around it.

El Maestro y El Toro

by Siaht

A Fedal (Roger Federer x Rafael Nadal) Manifesto. Very serious business. Addresses rumors and fanon beliefs. In light of the recent comments made by Rafael Nadal regarding equal pay for women in tennis, I have decided to discontinue my support of him. The way this will affect the Manifesto is that there will be no updates for the foreseeable future, but most likely forever. And there aren’t strong enough words to express how much this hurts me, but there are plenty to explain why I’ve made this decision. If you are interested, please continue reading here.
