Football supporters were always notorious for their bad taste in music. It was always very depressing when the matchday programs had those player profile questionaires…
Politics: Tory
Meal: Steak and chips
Superstitions: None (touch wood)
Music: Luther Vandross
It was always the same – until pat Nevin mentioned listening to The Cocteau Twins on a bus to the Chelsea training ground. It was such a relief that there was one (and it may well have been just one) player who had half-decent taste in music.
In 2005 Gaizka Mendieta (of Middlesborough) became only the second (to my knowledge) cool footballer when he mentioned Luna in an interview in the Sunday Times.
