A Quiet Period With the World Cup Finally Here

So the World Cup is finally here and attention turns to Brazil with the hosts opening the tournament on Thursday night against Croatia.

The start of the football festival also marks a quiet spell in the domestic game with many clubs having hopefully done good business on early bird season tickets by the end of May.

Next week’s announcement of the fixtures for 2014/15 will briefly turn the focus back to the domestic game and also allow clubs to make some tentative plans for when they introduce some match-specific ticket offers (although that is also dictated of course by fortunes on the pitch and events off it).

Pre-season friendlies are still a few weeks away and the Women’s Super League is still on its midseason break (although there is a tasty double header coming up at the end of June with two local derbies scheduled for the same stadium on the same day).

Enjoy the action from Brazil!
