"It is difficult and that many of us to consider the years as independent beginning January 1 and end 365 days later. I could say that 1980 was for me a year torpid, without content or color, but I would be wrong. These characteristics mean the period 1979/1980. For football fans this is so, our years, our units of time elapse from August to May, June and July do not really exist, especially in years ending with an odd number and n ' place or the World Cup or European Championship. Ask what was the darkest period of our lives and we will probably 1966/1967 (If we are supporters of Manchester United), 1967/1968 (for those of Manchester City), 1969/1970 (if we prefer Everton), and so on ... An empty bracket separates these time slots, it's our only concession to the calendar in use in the Western world. We Soulon like everyone else on the evening of New Year, but it really is in May, after the Cup final, we put our mentally record straight and we spread in greeting, in good resolutions , express our regret, like normal people at the end of one year conventional.
