We are arguing about it because of the boycott. The ones that go feel as though they have to let us know their reasons for going when most of us won't. They try to twist the words of others that won't go. And of course they will get a reply.
Going to games was a big part of our lives for a lot of us. I used to arrange my time off around games. Yesterday I arranged my weekend around the game. I had worked the night before the game. So I got my wife to drive me to Crewe. Too late to get the train. Needed some sleep. My wife is very understanding as she also loves football, and she knew my love for CCFC before we got together. We all have our vices
I am told that I am wrong not to take my youngest lad to Northampton. Why should anyone tell me how to bring my kids up. I show them right from wrong. He is only four and wouldn't know the difference now, but as he gets older and asks me why I didn't take him in previous years he will get my reply. And I don't take youngsters of his age to away games for two reasons. One is you can't 100% predict how the home support will be. The other is I normally have a good drink and can mingle with both home and away supporters so having a small one with me would stop this. It can also take me 8 hours or more to get to a game. Then I have the journey home. Not good for a small one. He will be a Sky Blue one day though. Just hope it isn't too many years away.
