Bill is a fanatical supporter of Watford F.C. Day after day he’sits in his unfurn’shed flat, watching the 1984 Cup Final with an obsession verging on madness. The video replays the fatal moment when the Watford goalkeeper fumbles the ball and Everton take a two-nil lead. Bill blames the goalkeeper’s mishap on the glare from Elton John’s glasses. Reconciled to an agoraphobic existence, Bill lamen’s the decline of his beloved team: ‘It was there the dream died’.
