Press Box to Penalty Box is a football analysis website that aims to bring original, creative, stimulating content to the fans of the Scottish Football League.

 

Football is not a game played on paper. It never has been. It’s a game of heart, determination and dynamisation. It’s the smell of pies drifting in the air, the sight of your team’s colours across a stadium, the soft thump of the ball when it’s kicked. It's the anticipation building in your chest as the anthem plays, the adrenaline rush when the ball hits the back of the net, and the surge of excitement when there’s a goal. It’s a team full of guys backing each other’s every move, and stands full of people cheering them on.

 

As much as the sport is about movement and life, you cannot underestimate the value and involvement of paper and the press. The game lives and breathes because of money from news circulation and coverage, and there is not a touchline coach without a notebook of tactical scrawling. It’s the press’ coverage of what happens in the penalty box that keeps it alive well after the game is finished.

 

Press Box to Penalty Box is a website created by two people with a love for football and a passion for reporting. Two people that care about not just what goes on in a game but what happens after it and the reactions it causes.

​

We don’t believe in boring, standard articles that are available anywhere on the web. Rather, we aim to bring fans original and fresh ideas, opinions and analysis on Scotland’s most popular sport.
