    Being able to stream illegally(allegedly) and watch any game, a bit like climbing o'er brewery wall and getting in for nowt in old days.

    Football kits, specifically school and kids teams. Back in 89 at Wombwell High we had a 70s kit with big **** off collars that used to poke you in the eye when you ran, the material was something your Gran would knit and once removed we had to have a week of sudocrem.

    These days they wear the same kits as pros, not a decade behind em.

    Cheap kits for young'uns. We've bought George two kits so far and they were only £25 each with proper Puma shorts and socks.

    Being of an age narr, sitting at a game is a godsend, yet when it first came in I hated it. Would still support standing areas for the young uns cos there is nowt like that for atmosphere, yet would it be the same?

    I used to hate having my face cleaned by my mother or being dried on the beach when I was a boy. She wasn't bothered how rough she was.

    To be fair I’ve enjoyed watching young lads making their way, better than some Barnsley eras I can remember. Some days did involve pain though, Preston away anyone or Brum at home, that may have been worse.
