On Being Tired of Football
I'm 29 and regularly attend two matches a weekend here in Bilbao, where such weekends are possible due to the staggered kick off times.
I'm not sure whether it is Grimsby Town's descent into to non-league causing me to watch more non-league than beofre (I previously went to Boston United games when we were away), whether I have become a bit disenchanted with the top level of the game or it is a mixture of the two.
What I do know is, is that my main gripe is 4 or 5 clubs at the top changing the game in a way that effects everyone else but only for their interests. This is driving me to more games where I am on the terrace as a neutral rather than a partisan supporter. Simply for the pleasure of travelling around, meeting new people but at the same time being able to get my football fix. I suppose it is also dictated by the fact I haven't permanently lived in Lincolnshire for a long time now.
