The world evolves and moves on and anyone in any customer service industry, which is what we are, will tell you not everyone will like it. As a bit of an oldie myself I find some of the stuff cringe-worthy but a lot of younger fans like it and they are our future.
I don't do the getting pissed with the lads pre match any more, some are no longer with us and the rest got married and gave up a long time ago. If I want a bite to eat I will grab a sandwich in town first and get to the ground about 2pm, watch a bit of the City square stuff then go in and usually straight home afterwards. This is the best football I have seen since Bell Lee and Summerbee were tearing up defences and with a season ticket it costs £35 a game, a steal! As others have said with some planning you can avoid all the hype and extra cost, get to the ground just prior to kick off, watch the usually great football and do one. Simple. If you are not thrilled with what is on offer at the moment it is definitely time to call it a day.
