I’ve genuinely never seen, in my years as a journalist covering this sport, a club finally win the Premier League after years of emotional collapses, only to do so from the sofa, with the wider football world reacting like someone had just announced a new Carabao Cup sponsor, a brief nod, a polite clap, and everyone moved on.
I still remember when England’s most glorious and mythical institution, Liverpool FC, won the league last season, playing great football and creating a sense across the football world that something monumental had happened, while with Arsenal, the title feels less like a historic coronation and more like a small club being allowed to hold the big trophy for a weekend, maybe because depressing football, set pieces and emotional insecurity will never quite feel like genuine greatness, which, from a purely journalistic perspective, is quite telling.

I remember my primary school in Botswana had agriculture as an actual subject. We even had a vegetable patch for the class and would compete with other classes 🌱
If they were to each contribute 10% of their profits each year for 5 years and create a SPV for funding and mentoring start-ups (venture capital/angel investment + deliberate procurement from startups), wouldn't we see development of new businesses? Economic development?
