Evening all,
A new Everton fanzine is coming out - The Black Watch. I spoke to the mods on here last week and they agreed it was ok for me to plug it to you all.
Fanzines aren't everyone's cup of tea but, as there is now only one regular print fanzine in circulation outside Goodison (fair play to the lads at NSNO), we've decided to have a go at producing one ourselves. Something you can shove in your back pocket and read wherever and whenever you want, on a match day or on your commute.
After a summer of writing and designing, the first issue of The Black Watch is currently with the printers and is available to pre-order online here: http://theblackwatchfanzine.bigcartel.com.
Contents include: a review of the summer (i.e. all the bizarre transfer rumours and ticketing chaos we all wet the bed over), stuff on Rooney, Bramley Moore and Goodison-inspired kit designs, a report of watching the Toffees in Tanzania, and an article on the good and the bad of watching MLS on holiday in New York.
Future issues will be on sale at the match, but the first issue is currently online only due to the timing of home fixtures.
More importantly, we also want more people to get involved with the fanzine. We want writers - loosely around the theme of Everton and football, whether that's matters to do with the team, the ground, historical pieces, or your list of the top 5 chippys by Goodison. The mag will be a broad church.
We would also love people to get involved with the design of the fanzine - we could do with people who have artistic/design talent, people who can illustrate, who can help us make the fanzine look even better. If you'd like to get involved PM me or email theblackwatchfanzine@gmail.com. We're on Twitter too: @TheBlack_Watch.
Cheers again to the mods for letting me post this.
