When reflecting back on the European Super League and those chaotic 48 hours when football in this country was turned upside down, it is difficult to feel great nostalgia or longing to relive that moment.
Although it led to a unified reaction across the land from supporters of the breakaway clubs, it also made us face some harsh realities around the clubs we care deeply about. How they are run, what is our involvement in them? Have we been asleep at the wheel for too long? Or, more realistically, is our actual power a mere fantasy we are never going to attain?
As a Chelsea fan, it feels highly ironic that a year on from the protest we are again faced with a seismic moment, this one though of longer-lasting effect and serious consequences.
