Pretentious Corner: Pilot



So, I've decided--pending what kind of reception I get from the CFC community--to start doing a weekly series of erudite, eccentric, basically deliberately pompous things relating in some way to football. So, in the groan-inspiring words of many an English teacher, I thought we'd start with some Shakespeare.

The goal is to compare each PL team to a play by Shakespeare. Please do comment recommended edits.
