There
was a bit of a punch-up in the supermarket last night, they tell me. Someone in
an Arsenal shirt confronted two teenagers in Chelsea kit and it all got a bit
pushy/shovey. I would like to say that this form of tribalistic violence is
beyond my understanding, but bearing in mind the way the Brexit negotiations
have been conducted, it’s hard not to feel a bit of sympathy.
I’m
not even sure what I mean by that.
I
never realised Arsenal and Chelsea were at opposite ends of a pool of
animosity, but someone told me today that they were involved in an important
match of some kind last night, so that may have helped instigate the silliness.
I thought football was all done and dusted for another Summer? Didn’t
Manchester City win everything, including best of breed at Crufts? And didn’t
Manchester United make the worst managerial appointment since the Nazi Party
circa 1935? How come they’re still playing each other at the end of May?
