Any content creator knows that getting the facts right and doing your research the proper way is both the core of any decent podcast, video or blog entry, but also the hardest variable to control (except the views of course). Reading books is a big investment of your time. Youtube videos do a poor job of referencing original source material. Newspaper articles frequently get the facts wrong. And podcast episodes normally serve to inflate the ego of the hosts, bruh.
This is why good sources of information are so valuable, and with this in made, your FBTG editorial recently became aware of an outstanding website for all things Spanish Football culture that we’d like to share with you. The Kingdom of Spain is a country that we increasingly view with interest, given the richness of its history and the popularity of our sport on the Iberian Peninsula, and while undertaking some journalism we discovered the treasure mine that is “La Futbolteca – Enciclopedia del Fútbol Español”.
In Spanish (sorry Brits), La Futbolteca dedciates pages and pages to the smaller and bigger teams around the country alike, creating long entries that are very rich in detail. A quick read of any larger post will clearly indicate the amount of research that goes into each one, and with greater frequency we have been using it as a place to go back to either for inspiration for new content or as a place against which we can fact check. For any entity making content about Spanish Football culture, it is an outstanding website to bookmark in your browser.
