Love You More Than Football was a previously unreleased Space album from 2000. Originally scheduled for release in July 2000, the album was intended to be their third studio album, following 1998’s Tin Planet.[1] The album, briefly known as Bulletproof, was later rescheduled for 4 December 2001 but was never released.[2][3] Most of the 14 tracks on the album were short love songs. The album was produced by Edwyn Collins.[1]

Only one single "Diary of a Wimp", was released from the intended album, reaching #49 in the UK.[4]

For many years, the album was set as license free, due to an early promo, CD-R, so it could be freely downloaded from the internet if a copy can be found. This was confirmed by the singer Tommy Scott, who when asked in Bristol in October 2009, apparently told a fan: "Oh God, that was meant to be released about ten years ago... If you got a copy of it, then it's yours, I've chucked that project away since Gut [records] screwed us over."Script error: No such module "Unsubst"..

As well as "Diary of a Wimp", three other tracks from the album later surfaced on compilations by Gut. "Gravity" appeared on Greatest Hits, and as a digital single in 2002, whilst "Good Times" and "I Love You More Than Football" appeared on Greatest Hits & Unheard Bits.

On November 8, 2019, a remixed Love You More than Football was finally officially released as part of The Anthology, a CD boxset containing the band's first five studio albums plus a disc of bonus and previously unreleased tracks. The album was also released separately on streaming services.
