    Took my nephew (6) to his first ever game yesterday - and he has left as a fully fledged football fan having seen 9 goals, a red card, and a touchline scrap.

    It's easy to forget that kids don't see the ownership problems, the negativity, the poor performances. The young lad yesterday saw a stadium with wide eyed wonder, a great game of football, and a reds win - all for a fiver.

    I've already apologised for the remainder of his footballing life!

    He might not see us score another 5 if he goes to every home game left this season!

    Surely the players will have realised that they can now score goals. But you have to shoot to score
