My Approach

"A good football puzzle should reward the fan who actually watches the matches, not just the one who scrolls the headlines."

Andrew writes the way he watches football, with an eye on the team sheet, the league table, and the small details that separate a good guess from a lucky one.

Currently Working On

Andrew is currently working on expanded clue logic for Futboldle and a new archive feature that lets players replay past daily puzzles.
