Browsing online, I came across an Independent preview of the Jewish Museum’s forthcoming exhibition on Jews and football, “Four Four Jew”.

I was surprised to read in the feature that Jews are “twice as likely” as the general population to go to a football match.

The information was said to have come from an article which was published in the JC in the 1990s.

I should not have been surprised. Because when I looked up the source in our archive, I discovered that I was a co-author of the piece apparently cited.
