Loving it

I meant that I'm now loving the football again. It is so direct: so refreshing. It got so drab and dreary latterly at LW which seemed to end up as an old mates club or even worse a home for footballing mercenaries. In my last full home season we won there twice, I think. Acco and Co seem to actually know what they are doing. That's a pleasant change.

I also enjoy seeing old faces who also seem to be enjoying it. People I respect and trust.

I very much enjoy the feeling of coming out of a ground having enjoyed the football. You will know that ,despite what JMT says, the standard of football at this level is surprisingly high. Our players are coached. They train. They are not left to their own devices.

As fans, We are now allowed to watch highlights. (If you remember, JG banned them in case it gave our opponents an insight to how we play. Ridiculous!). We are now allowed (encouraged) to see the club's accounts. Involvement is everywhere.

Being selfish (and much older now) The Oval is a much safer ground for me. There is no dangerous. dark, potholed approach for night games. With mobility issues I can sit (for free) in the stand on a bad day, or hang over the (excellent) fencing. Parking nearby and the walk to the ground is much easier. Yes, it will be great if we get back on home turf in the town which bears the club name. But I honestly thought it was over full stop a year or two back. It actually isn't.

A few posters (just my thoughts) put their posts of doom and gloom up here deliberately to dishearten people. Ignore them. They are trying to convince you, not how much they love the Boro or Nuneaton, but how much more cleverer they are than us ordinary mortals. Ignore them.

The more people come through those turnstiles now, the more possibility there is of a return NOT taking 15 years. A lot can happen in 15 years. Ask our neighbours up the A444.
