Nah. I think ive out grown it, it doesnt get me worked up anymore. I think dropping to the conference 15 years ago broke something, thats when i cared less. I couldnt get excited watching a game.

In my mid twenties one morning, i had a spiritual crisis, i thought "Is this all there is"? What i am referring too is life, not football. Football was one of the things that kept me enjoying life. Not anymore, its a chore. Even if United were raining Becks goals in, and top of the league.

All of this is good, i am changing, new things have my attention. Listening to coconuts isnt one of them, not that it ever gets played. Whats left is a lot of fun. Of course i still care, but not to the point of going. Maybe ancient Rome may change that. Gladiator fights can end in death.

Instead of losing or gaining three points, and one or two league positions, which is like drinking weak tea, maybe more can be at stake. Each fan is allocated a number, and if your team loses, a number is randomly selected.

And then that fan is err, well..... United will end up with no fans at all. Nah, that will never be allowed. Whats left is taking the michael, theres plenty of scope for jokes. Anyway, have you met up with sue yet? I bet the ground will shake.
