How surprising those with the money are premier league living the longest ... Life does after all mirror football

How surprising that the longest are the well off areas of the UK & the shortest are the big inner city areas. I am shocked to learn this!!

Without looking, I'd guess they'd only use one Nottingham club, seeing as they're so close together. The other two are also likely to be very near neighbours.

I'm not convinced that looking at the 100,000 people who live nearest to Old Trafford gives you much idea of the life expectancy of Man United fans.

We are in the top (well the worst) for binge drinking and obesity though.

I'd question the results if that was the case. The area around County is pretty deprived, and the catchment area round Forest is quite affluent (Ken Clarke is the MP for that bit of Notts).

It's an interesting but deeply flawed study statistically. It fails to take into account many factors and delivers very little actual valid results unfortunately. But then he does sort of state this himself early on.

Not so, I can't believe I actually checked, Forest are 10th in the Premier League, and County 17th in League 2, and this backs up the comment about affluent and deprived areas of Nottingham!
