Precisely. I got into the Wednesday because a journalist friend named Steve Gold was a fan, and I needed a club after Rice got "relegated." I got in just in time for Wednesday to be relegated. It's a community, and people need that.

My team Coventry City are currently playing your team Sheffield Wednesday repeatedly due to a league and cup draw loop.

Same logic applies - get away from everything and focus on the game.

Same oligarch owners, insane salaries and hyper capitalism but irrationally the heart and soul of so many places that have otherwise lost a lot of their identities.
