togliermi la voglia di calcio, una bella dose di calcio

Secondo me qui fix è nel senso gergale di "levarsi la voglia di", ovvero assumere una forte "dose" di qualcosa che dà soddisfazione. es. I hadn't had pizza for over a month, I really needed a fix

una dose di calcio

The meaning is that while he/she was away they missed English football, so on returning they needed a 'fix' like a drug addict needs a drug 'fix'.
