Old age and health problems associated with it are a real bind for you les but at least the fire of being an Iron fan still burns brightly within you which is the main thing and is very encouraging to hear. I’m just a home bird fan these days, can’t be doing with four hour long ( and the rest ) away days on a bus, then standing or sitting in some draughty old stadium , albeit enjoying the away day experience of atmosphere, banter and all, then contemplating that same bloody journey home after whatever result. Still get to the majority of home league games, cup games don’t interest me and if I get a better offer for some other social gathering, dinner with friends or a drink and food fueled enjoyable weekend away, then I’m gone. Still like going to Iron home games but the magic of yesteryear has definitely gone and maybe age is a factor but the main reason is the owner and his lack of interest in our club which has brought our current situation about.
