My friend Dave is a decent chap. Soft spoken, mild mannered, courteous with a good job, he is the type, I suspect, any girl would love to take home to meet her parents. But like all people, he too has a side that is well hidden from the outside world - his Achilles heel is football. And his team is Manchester United. Every time a match approaches, you can sense a subtle change taking place in Dave. A certain restlessness, a disturbance in his normally calm nature that is hard to pinpoint. This reaches a crescendo on the day before the big match. Heaven help you, if you happen to cross him at this stage -Jekyll and Hyde will seem like missionaries!
