    Spending far too much time on sites like this and worse still you find yourself arguing with posters who don't even attend games.

    When walking the dog on a local field the other day I told-off some teenagers for dropping litter.

    Although I hate litter, I still couldn't believe what I have become.

    Depends on their reasons for not attending games. We have thousands of some of our biggest fans who now don't go to games.

    On the plus side, you can hide the eggs at Easter, and still have fun trying to find them yourself. <ok>

    I remember my mam recently looking at me saying "I can't find my glasses" so I helped her look for 40 minutes. She then looked in a mirror and they were on her head, I genuinely didn't realise this and I was looking at her.

    Sometimes I'm on the phone and I suddenly panic and start patting myself down trying to find phone when it's my hand and I'm on it.

    Lost mine somewhere yesterday afternoon. Searched house/garage/garden for yonks with my wife's help but gave up when in desperation I even looked in the fridge!

    Found them today almost 24 hrs later on the floor beside a chair.

    You were essentially using not attending games as a stick to beat people with when it comes to their love and knowledge of the club. I'd argue in these times that's completely irrelevant.

    I often panic I've lost my phone when it's in my hand.

    I also often can't find my calculator on my messy desk and pick it up to see if it's underneath. How senile can I be to look for something that I've had to move to see if it's hiding underneath

    I was talking on the phone and it kept going crackly, so I was moving around asking 'is that any better?' Sad thing is, I was the one on the landline.

    Constantly banging my ****ing elbows - what's that about? My eyesight is reasonable, my physical coordination is OK (still play football), I don't shake rattle or roll yet I keep on banging my elbows on doors/cupboards/various inanimate objects when it's perfectly avoidable. Bastards...
