ever been a recorded example of one that hasn’t consisted exclusively of people spouting meaningless clichs and received wisdom?

I know that some fans have interesting opinions, so why do I never hear these people in shops? Is it because they dumb down to speak to whatever menial working **** is trying to engage them in conversation, or do these types tend to avoid mentioning to local shopkeepers that they’re a football fans so they don’t have to partake in such pointless, mind-numbing conversations?

"Let's not even talk about football," was his opening shot, which I found quite hopeful. Sadly, he then proceeded to do so.

Thick ****.

You tend to get a blank look, followed by 'yer what?' and then a repetition of the perceived wisdom, until you agree with it.

the arts and other such stuff, rather than football.

Anyone with half-a-brain wanting to talk soccer is basically a lunatic wastrel.

Obviously this would be very posh and southern so, to counteract those accusations, he also does pasties and meat pies.

Perhaps you should move to some trendy part of East London so you can hear hipsters discussing trequartistas and gegenpressing.
