What do Lizz Brady and me Robert Good have in common?
Lizz Brady is a fanatical Everton FC supporter, going to matches whenever she can and riding the highs and lows of victory and defeat. In the context of her own mental health, I am intrigued to find out how she copes with being so affected by something that is completely outside of her own control.
I am a Spurs fan, but more of the armchair variety. I follow them closely and get frustrated by their many failings (e.g. against West Ham just a few days ago), but find myself unable (or unwilling?) to invest so much emotional energy into their fortunes.
There are not too many artists that I know of who are also football fans, but there are many links between art and football (“The Beautiful Game”), and in our conversation we discuss a few of them.
