A writer I would recommend to anyone is B S Johnson.
Amazing - he has had three of books published in a trilogy, they feature two of his best Albert Angelo and Trawl.
but it worth getting the originals on Ebay, because the covers are amazing!
Fantastic, isn't he? I am a total Johnson nerd. I wouldn't have named those two as his best, personally (The Unfortunates, for me – and I think Christie Malry's probably the best place to start for those unfamiliar with him). Have you ever watched Fat Man On A Beach? It's all been put on youtube recently, the archived original. Heartbreaking stuff if you've read the (excellent) Coe biography.

Let's have a little competition
Who'll go and watch their team the most this season. After every match, take a photo of ticket stub/season ticket and post on here...
Dying to see how many Liverpool stubs we'll get :-)
See, I've never really got this. I've always had a season book while I've lived up here, and gone to as many away games as I could afford, but when I live in London I don't: I used to only get up a couple of times a season tops. Am I less of a fan during those seasons? I guess so, by your reasoning. I'm moving back down to London come September, but I won't feel any differently about the club, just because I won't be in my seat but watching it in the pub instead.

It's called the 'Aristotle'. I like to think this is alluding to Aristotle's key definition of the concept of the accident (accidens, as 'what happens'). By contrasting this with a notion of substance (substat), he thus established the groundwork for our later, post-Enlightenment understanding of accidents as integral to everyday life, a sense that our essential being is composed of the contingent and fleeting, that accidents themselves are often the site of self-transformation or self-definition. This post-Aristotelian understanding of 'accident' remains with us to this day, and a meaning (rather brilliantly alluded to by UO) which would presumably have extra resonance were you to actually ride one of these.
