Seems most of us are on here are more apathetic than we used to be, it must be a general trend because my god the atmospheres in this country have gone from terrible to downright abject in the last few seasons.
This is a bit of the reason why I'm apathetic. When we were in the Conference it felt like a real battle. We were a big fish and it felt like we'd been truly mugged off by Kassam and we needed to put some wrongs right. The promotion season from League 2 was special, but now we're in League one...
I suppose that indifference could be down to the financial problems? Fair play though, glad you've found other stuff you enjoy to do at weekends. From the ages of 11-22 I was at football every Saturday without fail, I'm happy to spend the day with the girlfriend or just put Jeff on the box...
Bit of a weird one, but does anyone feel as you age you become more apathetic towards your team, and football in general?
I can't really explain it. The result on a Saturday would once dominate my weekend. I'd travel to Bury or York on a Tuesday night, watch my team lose 2-0 and then start...
Christ, didn't realise you had stopped playing in Black & White, shows how out of touch I am. Why do these rich owners always try and change kit colours ffs.
I don't mind FGR, totally tinpot but harmless. Lovely part of the world.
Well your travelling support is pretty decent so I guess you are massive.
Grimsby, Carlisle and Swindon for promotion next season. Make League One massive again!
Fair enough, maybe you are a bigger club than I've given you credit for.
I just think Swindon is such a dreary and dismal place that in my mind it is classic division 4, hope to see that 7% figure rise over the next decade!
I just think Swindon are very much in the same category of a team like Grimsby or Carlisle. Not bigger or smaller. Just surprised some on here rate Swindon as a big side. I'd be surprised if your average home attendance was much more than 6,000 last season.
Going to get some stick for this but I'm surprised Swindon are rated as one of the bigger teams at this level by some people on here.
They had one season at the top level and it was a total disaster. Swindon to me is just an average division 4 side who will have the odd good spell in the third...
You have my respect for regularly travelling to that soulless bowl. Why you built a ground so beyond your needs is beyond me. A ground like Shewsbury's would have done you fine.
Football is overpriced at every level. I have never lived near enough to Oxford to get a season ticket, believe the cheapest ST has been reduced to £300 in the East Stand (Behind Goal). If I did live close enough to buy a ST I would probably go in the North Stand just so I wasn't always staring...
A season ticket would cost me £75 more at my local non-league club, a step 4 non-league team. Salford will also be able to include these ST's in attendance figures even if they do not attend.
There's something more sinister about Salford than the other teams, by 2025 it wouldn't surprise me if...
"Football Studies" :ffs: Society really needs to stop encouraging people to do these pointless degrees. Many Universities are just about profit now. If I didn't get the grades to get into a good University I would have likely tried another route.
As for Salford City, it's been covered by the...
