There are two games left before football’s ocean leaves us stranded and thirsty over the summerJust consuming the Premier League is like only eating a thin layer of icing on a big tasty cake. Football’s glorious omniscience can turn into a summer void.
As the pyramid is so huge, there’s an enormous amount of football going on at any time throughout any season, so you’re never short of detail and you can dive as deep as you like. As a child I would look up all local Teesside teams’ results in the Evening Gazette and developed a fascination with Port Clarence when they won the Middlesbrough and District League and League Cup in 1971. It was all so submersive and comforting.
That’s what is so good about the Saturday 3pm culture. Here we all are, north, south, east and west. All together. At the same time. For the same reason. It illustrates the truth that more unites us than divides us, and that’s a good psychological bulwark against those who try to drum up culture wars to divide and rule us.
From a practical point of view, when you follow football as a sport, there are always results to digest and discuss and fixtures to analyse and anticipate. These days you can easily digest results from all over the world. And you are always moving forward and there is always something to look forward to.
