Interest in the Albion

[Questions]

I prefer the meeting up for a beer more than I do the football at the moment to be honest. If we can our bide our time till we storm this division next season that'll be fine.

Agree with that - The day on the beer and having a laugh far out weighs the football. If you put the whole day on the quality of play and the result you will invariably go home unhappy where as after a day on the pop the result is a mild inconvenience.

I think I enjoyed football more when it was a bit more rationed - fewer games on telly, no 24-hour media coverage ... and actually no messageboards, twitter etc. I'm not saying I didn't crave these things, but now we've got them, it has somehow taken some of the magic away.

This for me. I hate the fact that I no longer have the need or interest in pouring over the results in a Sunday national paper, looking at the league tables in print etc. which used to be something special, buying The Argus on a Monday for the match report win, draw or loss. You don't even need to watch TV highlights shows anymore because most of it is already online. It's called progress, this clinical internet age, as soullessly efficient though it is.

As for the Albion, mojo is currently lojo at this end, bordering dangerously on meh.

Football in general = all fur coat and no knickers

The Albion isn't football, it's a part of me, after my mother it's the second longest relationship I have had, in my life.

I have absolutely no interest in watching football.

Conversely I enjoy podcast football talk.

But as a visual sport it no longer holds any interest.

I preferred Albion vs The World at Withdean.

It probably says something about my character for the need to be involved in a fight. Apart from feeling a little teary eyed during a fanzone, I'm not that inclined to return.

Apart from working at the exact timespan of Saturday bashes, I'm quite happy to be a fan and not a customerised fan.
