I'm a big fan of Cat Stevens and Father & Son is one of his best tracks.
It's a great expression of an underlying hostility where one party just can't understand where the other guy is coming from. I found myself humming it the other day, while I watched Arsene Wenger being interviewed on TV.
I started to wonder what would happen if Arsene got into the same kind of conversation with the team's fans as the protagonists in the song.
I got together with a very talented young singer/musician called Matt George Lovett and this is what we came up with.

Wenger & Fans
It used to to be the Beautiful Game. Now it's all about snarling overpaid prima donnas on the pitch, managers who are going to be "sacked in the morning", billionaires who never saw a game before they bought the club and referees who picked up a whistle because they never got in the team when they were at school. I love the game but it drives me crazy. This blog is my way of getting all the frustrations off my chest and to see if there is anyone else out there who thinks football has gone nuts.
