About The Tap-Inn

Soccer, explained like you're sat at my bar.

The Tap-Inn is a free, twice-weekly newsletter that helps people make sense of the world's most popular sport. No spreadsheets, no PhD-level tactics, no nonsense — just simple, witty explainers from Joe, your Irish bartender (no, really).

This site is the quiz side of the operation. Nine questions, one Premier League team recommendation, no signup required. We also publish guides to all 20 Premier League clubs, a glossary that explains the sport in plain English, and a guide to the 2026 World Cup for people who've never watched before.

What we're building

We started The Tap-Inn because the Premier League is brilliant and nobody explains it to newcomers without either talking down to them or burying them in tactics jargon. Twice a week we break down what actually happened, why it matters, and what to watch for next — the same way you'd explain it to a mate at the bar.

Quiz recommendations are editorial. Nobody pays us to push a specific club, and the result doesn't change based on what we earn. Where we link to jerseys or gear, some of those are affiliate links — see our Privacy Policy for details.

Pull up a stool.

Twice a week, straight to your inbox. Free, and you can leave whenever you like.
