Once every four years, this country is rendered delirious, and in turn bedridden, by an acute case of World Cup fever - but not this year. Jason Jones unpicks the lack of enthusiasm for this year’s tournament for 3addedminutes | Artwork via Talenthouse
At the time of writing, it is two degrees in my native Gateshead, although a spiteful south-easterly wind means that the actual temperature probably feels somewhere closer to minus two. Snow is forecast later, as is a thick frost tonight, and the predicted high for the next week-and-a-half is a balmy three degrees. The Costa del Sol, it ain’t.
A chill this baltic saps the enjoyment from everything, including - it would appear - the World Cup. Much was made of’s decision to host the tournament in a nation and at a time of year that required a fundamental disregard for an entire global schedule, but at one stage, I do think there was at least some semblance of curiosity, morbid or otherwise.
