The pub has played an central role in both professional and grassroots football culture for hundreds of years. But with the number of UK licensed premises falling below 100,000 for the first time since records began last year, the two are in a marriage that's on the rocks. And we're already starting to see the impact it's having on matchday rituals, the funding of grassroots football, and male social interaction.
