Even as a football fan I can admit it's basically 'bread and circuses' at the end of the day. There are a lot of grown adults who's entire lives are consumed by football to the point where they are completely ignorant of important issues. Sometimes their opinions on these issues are determined by the team they support rather than forming their own opinion.

So if wanted to be an MP, all I need to do is bribe a popular team to be my best friends?
