Inauspicious beginning

This site is in the very early stages of trying to replace Mark Boric's "Melbourne Soccer" blog, beloved for its Australian soccer text archives, not quite as beloved for its scathing commentary on Melbourne soccer politics. You can't please all of the people all of the time.

Where Mark used Google Drive for his archival storage, I will be using the Internet Archive. It's more tedious to upload things on the latter, but on the plus side, Internet Archive is free, has an anarchistic sharing ethos, and also has increased functionality for things like searching, accessibility, etc.

Updates will be intermittent, depending on personal work schedules and general motivation. Blog structures and layout are subject to change depending on how I figure out things along the way.
