So, I think I have said that I don't get up to as many games as I used to or would like to, yet after over 50 years support, the feelings never change, I'm full of nervous energy for the game against West Brom tomorrow at 8 pm the night before!!, When I walk out of the White City station tomorrow, cut through the estate and walk down South Africa Road, I'm no longer an arthritic 62 year old, I'm that 12 year old kid again, taking in the sights and smells like it was the first time.
There will be thousands like me going to games tomorrow, feeling exactly the same, those weird people who say " it's only a game" just don't get it, they have never felt the sheer joy your team can give you, nor the utter despair at times, I've shed tears of joy and tears of heartbreak over the years, not ashamed to admit it, so here's to a good day tomorrow, if you are going soak it all in no matter what happens, for we are all United in our love for our team and the beauty of the game of football
