A simple question asking for advice.
For the last few seasons I have our season tickets in the East Stand with my youngest, sat about halfway up and on the halfway line as I like the view it gives.
However my lad no longer wants to go, and the atmosphere is pretty dead in the East. I do long for a bit of singing/shouting/hurling abuse like I used to have when I went years ago.
Should I stick with my current seats or look to move into the North or West?
It’d be interesting to know why your youngest doesn’t want to go anymore...
I used to take my son (now 26) and although he never said he didn’t want to go anymore, I think he mainly came to please me.
He lives in Bristol now (following university) and is a Liverpool supporter. He still comes to a game if there’s one on when he comes back to visit; or when we’re away to Rovers and I’ve travelled down.
He’s not a Cobblers supporter however and doesn’t even keep up with the results. Like you we used to sit in the East stand and I have wondered whether he might have got bitten by the bug had we sat somewhere there was more atmosphere - that’s what got me hooked in the county ground days.
On the other hand maybe I’ve done him a favour...
