My dad's friend. 66 years old. Used to go back in the day but is very much a lapsed fan. Probably been to the Ricoh once or twice. Got a season ticket this season and must have done about seven away games already!
The thing is, football is such a simple game, and engenders so much passion.
On the odd occasion that it's possible (fixture permitting), I take the GLW up the Butts and we have a good drink and hope that Cov win.
In the summer, we go and watch Corley in the cricket. We have a good drink and hope that Corley win.
When we go to the football together, the game is the PRIMARY reason we are watching sport, at the rugby and the cricket it's on while we socialise.
I say this because 10 years ago my missus wasn't into sport at all. Now she is, but only football gets her really exercised emotionally.
By my reckoning, that makes him eleven in 1987.My 45 year old mate, from Cov but always a spurs fan…and previously a spurs season ticket holder. Growing up used to say we were shit…used to get some shit back for obvious reasons.
Have started going up a bit with him in more recent years. Took him up to watch the game vs cardiff this season. At one point in the second half, He had his hands over his eyes at and was saying “I can’t watch. I just know They’re gonna score”!
Says he supports Cov now.
Especially if you’re reminded by your City supporting mates every day for the rest of your life!By my reckoning, that makes him eleven in 1987.
These things can scar a person at that age.
Presumably birthdays and Christmas?On the odd occasion that it's possible I take the GLW up the Butts
Just talking with Mrs BSB about how over time she has been ‘indoctrinated’ into supporting CCFC, not by me but by the experience of following the club for most of the last 10 years. Talking about how at games she tries to mentally will the ball to go in or stay out, can’t watch when we’re hanging on at the end and dislikes Wasps probably more than I do. There for most of the League 2 season including some bleak away days, but just got more into it. Reminded me of how I used to feel watching my first few seasons as a boy, with the same emotions at games and growing attachment to the club.
It goes to show you’re never too old to get hooked on CCFC.
What does Mrs ELB think about that?I do love the way people refer to their partner on here as Mrs *SBT username*!!
It’s great to get people hooked on CCFC and convert them overtime! In our group there’s two ST holders now that were originally Liverpool fans until they started doing the away days with us for the piss up…
Fair play to you buddy...that's an opportunity any hot blooded male couldn't turn downOn the odd occasion that it's possible , I take the GLW up the Butts and we have a good drink and hope that Cov win.
