Yes indeed Gazelle. I, like you, am one of those who now regrettably due to circumstances rarely gets to games. Alty TV, RR and of course the forum are fantastic for keeping people like us in touch, at least feeling we are still part of that family. It isn't a patch on being there, familiar faces, voices, friends, nodding acquaintances, the banter, the beer and of course those in red & white upon whom we pin such hope (and maybe expectation). I would much rather be there than listening from afar, even in defeat, because it is about so much more than just the football (although that is obviously a prime motivator).
There are all manner of people that watch Alty, we wouldn't all naturally be friends or agree with each other on a whole host of issues, but I'm bloody sure we ALL want us to go up. So whether you're glass full, glass half full, glass half empty, glass spilled or even who the feck's nicked my pint, the final push is on.
These players can achieve what we ALL desire, some of us may have less faith in that outcome than others, but we all have to hope to believe.
COME ON ALTY.
