My 3 year old opened the door to me yesterday and said "Did the football make you frightened daddy?" without the Freudian slip, he meant 'sad' instead of 'frightened'... and he gave me a big cuggle.
I said "yes it did, but it'll be alright again soon, and when you're older we can share frightened football together!"
Didn't have one this year. Will continue to purchase tickets on a game by game basis when I can afford it. Managed to go to nearly all the home games this year.
