When Classical Music and Football meet... it gets weird
It's not often I get inspired to do something after a Rafael Benitez sacking, but when Duncan Ferguson took over from him at Everton, a small part of my started wondering, "didn't someone from Finland write a symphony about him when he went to prison?" I checked, and indeed he did.
But that wasn't the only time football and classical music have weirdly crossed over...
