Had the conversation last night. She said I spend more time thinking about Hull City than I do about our relationship. I tried to argue but then she pulled out the evidence.
I check the transfer rumours before I check my messages in the morning. I've got more Hull City podcasts downloaded than photos of our kids. I rearranged our wedding anniversary dinner last year because it clashed with the Derby game. In my defence it was an important game and we lost anyway so it was a complete waste of a romantic evening.
She also pointed out that I've never once screamed with joy about anything she's done the way I scream when Vipotnik scores. Which is a fair point actually. Although in my defence she's never volleyed one in from twenty yards at the MKM on a Saturday afternoon.
I promised to be better. Took her out for a nice meal on Saturday. Booked a table at a fancy place on Humber Street. Candles, wine, the works. She was really happy until she caught me checking the score on my phone under the table during dessert. We were beating Coventry 2 1. She said if you look at that phone one more time I'm going home in a taxi. I put the phone away. We won 3 1.
Am I alone here or is this a universal football marriage problem?
