Tired, hungover and at the end of its tether, the Fiver realised how much the quality of all our lives would improve if we could STOP FOOTBALL, causing it to cease to exist altogether. We pointed out that we'd still have cricket and cycling and hurling and rugby and golf and snooker and darts and boules and that thing on Eurosport where blokes see who can bounce furthest down a ridiculously steep hill without getting crushed by the motorbike they've just been unseated from, but wouldn't have to deal with tedious drivel about England's Brave John Terry not going to Manchester City, Him being unveiled by Them, or Bristol City manager Gary Johnson hailing the capture of Scotland international Paul Hartley as "a great signing". We wouldn't have to worry about any of those things because football would be stopped. Forever.
One hundred signatures and I am honestly blinking at the screen because I really thought the only person who hated Paul Hartley transfer news was me. It is weirdly comforting to know there are others out there who would trade the whole league for a bit of silence and maybe just watching darts instead.

If I have to hear one more breathless update about a transfer fee I might actually throw my tv out the window.

I'd rather serve in hell than watch or cheer for soccer as a sport.
