An
odd statistic from the Political Betting website: the final league table of the
Premier League shows that all the top ten clubs, with the sole exception of
Burnley, have their grounds in constituencies which voted Remain, whereas all
the bottom five clubs are in constituencies which voted Brexit. A mere
coincidence, perhaps; but the American writer P.J. O’Rourke in a recent book
assessed both the Brexit vote and the election of Donald Trump as “The revolt
of the losers”. Perhaps this applies in football terms too?
