The match day buzz never leaves.

Never the same for me once we left Maine Rd. The pubs in Moss Side and Rusholme. The Whitty, the Welcome and the Bee Hive especially, the chance to drown your apprehension in good draught bitter. Doesn't seem the same I'm town even, when we head east rather than south. CTID but something was lost when we left Maine Rd which I don't seem to be able to find.

My Grandad said the same when we left Hyde Road.
Up the blues.

There are many older blues who would return in a flash if they could and I am one of them. If I had one football we ish it would be to walk up the Kippax steps and sing my heart out. Alas

Here's a question I've asked several times but never got the answer. If you walked out of the Kippax towards the junior school on the left of it 100 yards or so past there was a Wilson pub on the corner I'd drink in now and again. Do you know name?
 
Not the same going to the game for me anymore. Far too much razzamatazz at football now hence why I cut back on night games this season as I actually really detest them with all the hassle.

Not excited about tonight at all and I’ll be sat watching on TV.

I think the pinnacle for me was reached in Istanbul to be honest.
 
Sorry but it's not the same I'm 63 now and a 14 year old kid coming from Knutsford on the train with mates walking up the kippax stairs to see the pitch smell all the smells hear all the voices, songs that was a thrill and is not the same as going to the match today, do I love still going absolutely yes.
I don't know, it's all relative.

At a cup game last season, can't remember which but it was dark and I'd been moved 'downstairs' as I was having a beer around 115ish a dad & lad came in, his face when he saw the pitch through the tunnel was fantastic (lad not dad).
 
I get no buzz any more.
It's long gone.
I went on Saturday.
Could have easily stayed in tge pub before the game
Too much money in the game.
To many tourists.
To much time wasting.
Look at the spurs keeper on Saturday in the first half.
Nothing wrong with him buts lie down let's have a team talk.

I stood there thinking what the fuck is going on
