Really good article. One of my pet hates is when something tragic happens and people say “it certainly puts football into perspective” as if the two things have anything to do with each other.
Stuff like football is what makes life worth living. I was glad Spurs won last night but I still felt desperately sorry for those Ajax fans, who, realistically, won’t get near another Champions League final for years. I’ve had a few things go wrong lately, but I was still absolutely gutted when our relegation was confirmed on Saturday.
