Welcome to The Addition, where I cover the crossover between culture, media and sport.

The game is the first of 215 games (at least) that are set to be shown by Sky Sports, alongside the Saturday lunchtime games that will be on TNT Sports. It's the most football we've ever had on TV, and there is going to be loads of coverage of all things football media here on The Addition, including in the weekly live blogs. Sponsored by: TickarooThese are some of my favourite stories, not because they are all positive or make me feel good, but becauyse I think they capture what I'm trying to do with The Addition. I hope you enjoyed (re)reading them.
