Default Fairy Rings in Lawns

Has anyone any experience of these. I have several about 5 feet diameter
and they produce a ring of small funghi which appears from time to time
(like now). The ring eventually kills the grass but with a surrounding
ring of very fertile grass. Underneath the dead stuff is a lattice of

white
threads. How to get rid of? How did it come in the first place? Why
fairy ring? Why circular? etc?

Any useful comments welcome.

have dug out the soil and replaced with new and returfed and by the next
year they are back worse than ever
