With the England v Scotland friendly bumping I’m A Celeb off our screens for one blessed night, Twitter users could have hoped to enjoy an evening free of debates over Gemma Collins’ malaria status.
Not a bit of it.
Instead, legions of IACGMOOH fans (that’s the acronym they use, right?) took to social media to proclaim their tearful rage at the oldest of football rivalries taking precedent over a Z-list TOWIE star weeping over a kangaroo scrotum.
Some had obviously been taken by surprise.
While some saw it coming a mile off.
Others demanded compensation.
Many managed to lose sight of the fact it was just ONE DAY in an otherwise IACGMOOH-dominated week.
Some took the first steps to admitting their fanaticism probably required some kind of counselling.
While perhaps the best response was to marry the two.
