Announcement: The Rising Sun finds a new home

Oita report will come after I’ve caught up on sleep, suffice to say there was more good than bad.

Anyway. Anyone with an interest in Japanese soccer has more than likely visited the Rising Sun News, run peerlessly by Matsu for the last several years.

The RSN covers J1, J2, the National Team, and even JFL/prefectural league teams in more detail than anywhere else. Additionally, the site’s forums have served as an intimate gathering place for fans of J.League.

Unfortunately due to the sites’ old server (located on a subsection of the now-defunct wldcup.com) slowly eating itself, Matsu has had to relocate the Rising Sun to a new location. While this is really a good thing in the long run in terms of expanding the reach of Japanese soccer bloggers (the move has already produced an alliance between RSN and JapaneseSoccer.Net and will likely expand to bring J.Bloggers such as myself and others on my blogroll into the fold), there is a small matter of letting fans of the RSN know where the site is.

So, redirect your bookmarks, blogroll links, and suchlike to http://www.the-rising-sun-news.com. And spread the word.
