While football 'the game' is our favourite sport by long shot (well, Nick and Andy's at any rate), we're starting to get mightily sick of football 'the industry'. Premiership ticket prices are so high that many fans are priced out of going to support their club while players who earn more money in a week than most of us do in years whine about being 'slaves'. Teams that get relegated from the Premiership get £30 million in 'parachute payments' for their failure, surely an unfair advantage over other teams in the second flight, yet still get themselves into financial troubles. We could go on. A lot.
