A recent research on Football fans suggests that 52 per cent of the fans think about football once in a minute. The Football Association released the research to mark the Sir Bobby Robson National Football Day on 10th August.
The research suggests that majority of the fans have agreed that they plan their schedules according to the football season. Some of them plan their holidays according to football matches. 91 per cent of the fans cancel their important meetings,weddings and other occasions in order to watch a match.
52 per cent admit that they think more about football than other essential works like eating, sleeping. Another 50 per cent said that they check football updates every minute. Football has become a drug to many fans who face withdrawal symptoms during the summer break, reports Daily Mail.
A spokesperson from The Football Association comments: “Our research shows just how much football infiltrates our daily lives and how, at this time of the year, the nation really does get football fever.
“The Sir Bobby Robson National Football Day is the perfect opportunity for everyone, whatever age or skill, to get involved in the game – whether at one of our 150 organised events or simply kicking a ball around in their local park”.
‘Eat Football, Sleep Football, Drink Football, Live Football’ is hence proved by the Football fans all over the world. Long live The Beautiful Game.
