WE are a football-mad, family-run business based on the borders of East London and Essex. We became established in the late 90s by specialising as niche publishers of various sporting publications.
In 1998 we launched our own magazine, Football World (right), and after the millennium also put together titles on behalf of the England Rugby Football Union, Royal Ascot and leading cricket organisations.
Our main role was to write quality editorial content for a wide range of high profile clients, including The Football League (producing the programmes for all five of their annual showpiece Wembley occasions, from the League Cup Final to the play-off finals), and also writing/editing a number of official English Premier League magazines.
In 2002 we launched the West Ham retro magazine titled EX, exclusively interviewing past players, managers and staff, including all the living legends. We published 79 editions until we closed the title, at the same time the Hammers left the Boleyn Ground to move to Stratford, in the summer of 2016. It seemed the right time to draw a line under what had been a great experience. Back issues of EX are now highly collectable.
These days we mainly produce books and eBooks on our two local professional football clubs, Leyton Orient and West Ham United.
