About Me – Peter Kenny Jones

My name is Peter Kenny Jones, and I'm a Liverpool-based football historian, writer, author, presenter and digital media creator.

I'm the founder of The Football Historian, an independent football media platform dedicated to telling the stories that make football special. From legendary players and iconic moments to forgotten matches, historic stadiums and the people behind the game, my aim is to bring football history to life through engaging, accessible storytelling.

What began primarily as a football writing project has grown into a multimedia platform, reaching an audience of more than 250,000 across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, alongside my website, podcast and Patreon.

The Football Historian

Today, my work covers much more than traditional football writing. I produce original short-form documentaries, historical features, interviews, podcasts, matchday coverage and behind-the-scenes content, travelling to football grounds, museums, clubs and events to uncover and share stories from across the game.

A particular focus of my work is exploring the history of football through the places where it happened. Whether that's discovering the stories behind the Dublin derby, exploring Belgian football culture, visiting historic stadiums or examining remarkable objects in the National Football Museum, I aim to tell stories that might otherwise be forgotten.

My content ranges from bite-sized football history videos and archive discoveries to longer interviews with former players, managers and other figures from the game.

Through The Football Historian Podcast, I've interviewed a wide range of former professional footballers, exploring their careers, memorable moments, personal experiences and the stories supporters don't always get to hear.

Alongside my own channels, I continue to work with football organisations, clubs, brands and media outlets on original content, interviews, editorial features and digital campaigns.

Writing, Journalism and Books

I'm a member of the Football Writers' Association and the Sports Journalists' Association, and hold international sports press accreditation through AIPS.

My written work has been published by clubs including Liverpool, Fulham, Watford, Huddersfield Town, Sheffield Wednesday, Port Vale, Southend United, Morecambe and Macclesfield Town, alongside numerous magazines, fanzines and football websites.

I've also written three books, including Sweeper Keeper: The Story of Tommy Lawrence, Scotland and Liverpool's Legendary Flying Pig.

My academic background includes an MA in History, completed in January 2018, with research specialising in football history on Merseyside during the 1960s.

That historical background remains central to everything I do. Whether I'm researching an article, presenting a video or interviewing a former player, I want to make football's past as interesting and accessible as possible.

Media, Interviews and Content Production

Alongside The Football Historian, I work on football-related media projects, social media production, brand collaborations and event coverage.

This includes creating video content for clubs and organisations, conducting interviews, producing promotional features and helping businesses tell their stories through social media.

I also work with ARC Hotel Liverpool on its social media presence and football-related content, and have experience organising media events, coordinating press attendance, arranging interviews and managing promotional coverage.

My work has taken me to football grounds and sporting events across the UK and internationally, providing opportunities to interview players, explore clubs and tell the stories of football communities.

I've also appeared on television and radio, including TRT World, Channel 4, Squawka Football, Times Radio and LBC Radio, discussing football history, contemporary football and wider issues within the game.

A selection of my broadcast appearances, interviews and editorial work can be found throughout this website.

Working Together

I'm always interested in hearing from clubs, media organisations, museums, football venues and brands looking to collaborate on interesting projects.

This can include original video production, historical storytelling, interviews, podcast appearances, football-related campaigns, social media content, event coverage and editorial commissions.

Above all, I'm interested in collaborations that fit naturally with The Football Historian and offer something genuinely interesting to football supporters.
