I think that's maybe part of the bubble bursting with football's popularity.

I'm guilty of stereotyping too with Jay, I just assumed he'd be a Newcastle fan because I've never met a Geordie who isn't, and also assumed the reason he'd not spoke about it was because he didn't want to alienate potential voters by declaring his team affiliations. I was genuinely shocked when he said he had no interest in football.
