Quote: Damo-Leeds "Your situation isn't unusual at all as I know others who go on their own because their relatives won't go with them for whatever reason. Would you prefer it if you went to the games with someone or are you just content to be mingling with strangers?
Personally I'm happy keeping in touch with the games on TV or Radio. Not many of my friends really like sport, never mind rugby so my interest has waned in recent years.
Appalling language comes as a culture shock to me these days but I guess you get used to it from experience.'"
I don't mind being on my own I would prefer to go in a crowd but I meet the same people & have a good natter, I am a self confessed League nut & I miss the days gone by when the fans mixed more. As for foul language it must be my age group (been watching since the late 1950's) I just feel embarassed by it & would not want to have to explain to my grand kids what they are shouting. I think we are lucky at Rovers that we play mostly on a Sunday we get a good mix & range of ages. I dont like 8pm kick offs as i am usualy getting ready for bed on work days. I wont be at tonights game against Saints as I won't get home untill gone midnight & I expect a significant few wont be taking young kids either. but we can't please everone.
