Especially when the other extreme is sheerly frightening.

"A football fan will get damages of £1m if England are knocked out of the World Cup early and he suffers trauma. "

The fan taking insurance states that:
"I think a lot of supporters are under a lot of pressure and suffer because of England's performance."

This connected to other people I do not want to be. At least not over something so trivial.

Come on! It's a game! No-one's going to die, unless supporters lose whatever sense of proportion remains to them.

At least it's not only the Jocks up North who are getting sick of constant references to THAT particular year awhile back. Insurance policies are typical of the people who think they have the best team in forty years.
