You for any reason could not go to watch our beloved pool's again.
Would you never go and watch pro footie again or would you go to watch the big 3 now and again.
I would got to watch Celtic as much as possible.

Nope. Pools are the only team I have any interest whatsoever in watching. I'm not a footy fan I'm a Pools fan.
I have however played rugby at a reasonable level so I'd probably go and watch that instead.

I would go to the odd game here and there if I couldn't go to Pools but would pretty much become and armchair fan. Probably start going to more England matches again.

I after concur, although whenever I have went up to the Falcons I have enjoyed it maybe not always the result though, but as you say it is bloody expensive to go nowadays

I was expecting this


IF

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!


--Rudyard Kipling

So......you'd go and watch the big three now and again, then?

I would probably go and support my local team Billingham Town:

Although I may venture up the A19 to the S.O.L. on the odd occasion
