No, I don't, but soccer is a commercial enterprise - the big football clubs make huge amounts of money from selling TV rights. I genuinely do believe that the majority of people in the UK believe that "Arts Council" grants are worthwhile and necessary. The fact that arts are a minority interest does not mean that they should not be publically funded.
