To all the users of {worldfootballR} and the amazing connections I’ve created through that vehicle, I’m sorry to say that {worldfootballR} will no longer be maintained. I’m incredibly proud of it and incredibly thankful all the support I’ve received over the years! github.com/JaseZiv/worl...

Haven't posted an update for a while but given the angst getting player valuations are causing, we've pushed an update to version 0.6.8, allowing users the ability to loop through each team instead to fix issues a little easier as they arise #worldfootballR jaseziv.github.io/worldfootbal...

Pretty proud to have the {worldfootballR} #rstats library reach 500 starts on Github. Massive thanks to @tonyelhabr.bsky.social and all the other contributors over the journey ❤️

bluesky has a cool feature called starter packs - you can create a list of accounts and/or feeds as a recommendation that people can click once to follow. I've put together the beginnings of one for the footy nerd community on here. Tell me who I've missed (including yourself). go.bsky.app/2yXiW7t
