Sames as most born and bred.
However not sure where I got my passion for the club from, my Old Man, although a Cov fan, was never massively into football and think he only ever took me to two games (Liverpool at home mid 80's and Banik Ostrava at home in a friendly late 80's I think). Me and my brother (also not really a football fan) played rugby from the age of 5 through to 16 but I was always much much more into football.
We used to have fights at Cally pretty much every week, one end of the corridor was the rugby lads and the other end the football lads and I always used to join in on the footballers side. Which didn't do me much good because the rugby lads would, on the whole, knock fuck out of the footballers.
Used to listen to the City on the radio every week without fail and cut out the players pictures from the telegraph and the pink and have them on the wall, then I got my first season ticket around the age of 13/14 and went with a group of lads from school and was properly hooked for a good 12/14 years after hardly missing a home game.
Last 3/4 years has seen my passion dissipate and in fact I didn't attend a single game last season and have only done Crewe away so far this season. Combination of different factors but just don't get "the buzz" like I used to anymore.
I am jumping on the JPT bandwagon though and will be going up Tuesday night. Might even give the flag an airing just for the crack.
