The last two paragraphs sum my footie up perfectly.
For me, Saturday remains the day you can get away from the crud of everyday life for a couple of hours. Even if the game is rubbish, it’s still enjoyable and something I would never want to miss.
Whether your match routine involves meeting friends at a pub, bar, or café, or going it alone and appreciating a little time away, it’s priceless. Enjoy!
Lovely article mate, going to ‘the match’ is so much more than just watching the football, it’s much more of a social thing for me and the result has become of decreasing importance as I get older.

Great piece Colin, that escape is what it is, even if life is going well.
