Looks good so far, I keep thinking of features it needs, but you've already added them!

We've added every English Premiership and Championship side and it's really easy to set up.

Just click 'Customise this page'

Then 'Add news fast!'

Then pick 'Football' and the side you want

Click 'Submit' then 'Done'

And that's it. If you'd like more Scottish or International sides let us know.

Re: Your News - How I use it

Even though I wrote the code for this feature, as a user I love it!

For example, I can't wait for Transformers and would love to know about any news items for it. Adding a new box for only Transformers news was as easy as adding a new Film|All Films box and typing transformers in to the keywords box (and changing the title to be Transformers).

Hey presto, transformers news in a single place.

Then I went in and added Michael Bay's blog as a custom RSS feed to that box (http://www.michaelbay.com/blog/files/mbay001.xml) and I've got the latest news from him in there too!

Nice one Andy - it'd be great if you could share that box with me, with everyone in fact. Something for version 2?
