A few years ago, on a long car journey, a friend and I identified the following principle in English football:
The strength of an English cathedral city’s football club is inversely proportionate to the attractiveness of its cathedral. In the case of London, clubs and cathedrals have to be located in the same borough.
Curiously, this rule doesn’t seem to apply to football clubs in European cathedral cities.
Any thoughts?
