but it was a completely different age, very tribal, very male dominated
pure working mans football and very drink influenced, much more passionate and almost fighting for your City, I much prefer it how it is now knowing my wife and kids are safe when going to the footie. I much prefer the sitting bit even though its killed passion, Peterborough last year was a nightmare for kids and older people, it makes me wonder how football existed without seats.
