My football has gone flat.

No, I didn’t kick my Mitre through a window. No irate gardener has stuck it with his pinking shears. This is not about never being able to find that needle valve that you know you have somewhere.

I’m talking football, the sport. My football. The game I’ve loved since I was old enough to remember.

I think you know exactly what I’m talking about.

The same four teams at the top of the table. Millionaire footballers that care more about the colour of their boots than the colour of their shirt. Being treated like an imbecile by managers who think I’ll be satisfied with the usual platitudes of ref-done-us-wrong and deserved-something-from-the-game. The appearance of a Billionaire Investor becoming the single most important event in the trajectory of a football club. Being ignored by the club I’ve followed my whole life.

Maybe your football has gone flat too?

But this isn’t a blog about bitterness and misery. It’s about dreaming and optimism.

What effect could one person have in the face of multi-million pound corporations with only self-interest on their minds?

Change the sport? Unravel the mess? Unspill the milk?

What about one person with a blog? One person who starts a movement?

“Interesting. Very interesting”.
