[edit] Introduction

Hello there,

Although I am English, I lived in Israel for four years, first as a student at the Albert Katz International School for Desert Studies, and then as an English teacher at the Wall Street Institute in Be'er Sheva.

Although I have a wide-range of interests, my "specialities" are English football (especially Non-League), Israeli football and Israeli politics. Nevertheless, I don't claim to be an Oracle on any subject, so don't be afraid to correct what I've written!

[edit] Excuses

Although I always use the Show Preview button, I somehow almost always seem to leave some major mistake in my edits, hence the multiple edits I have had to do on many pages!
I also made a bit of a cock-up on the Hapoel Bnei Lod article, claiming they were the same team as Hapoel Lod before re-edting it. This I blame entirely on my inability to properly read the Hebrew version of Wikipedia.

I also intend to:

Flesh out articles on Israeli football clubs and Israeli football stadiums, many of which are lacking in detail
Correct bad Hebrew to English transliterations (including replacing "h" or "ch" with "kh", "z" or "ts" with "tz" and "q" with "k")
