    Comparing the age distribution of posters in the current Febbos thread and the original one last updated in 2013 which listed 177 posters.

    2011. Number of posters in the aged 26 and below category. 52 (29%)
    2019.......................................................................................... 7 (4.8%)

    Social media taking its toll on here?

    Good to hear from you nwt. One of the original FOG top 10,you have moved into No 3 on that list. I have only been to the Boulevard once on my first visit to Hull to meet my new mother-in-law. That was in 1977 and I was taken into the Thre'penny Stand by my sister-in- law and her husband. A memorable experience!

    My husband like yourself supports both clubs.

    I know it is only a small group of supporters but it's interesting the percentage over 60, which normal clubs give concessions prices at the moment is 31%, factor into that youngsters then I guess you would be at 40%+ come into the concession range.

    That is a large percentage of supporters and really highlights that the club is affecting a large band of fans.

    It's good how many of the older generation are comfortable using social media, could somebody tell my parents . My dad keeps his mobile in the kitchen 24/7 so he always knows where it is , and i told my mum I had something funny on my Facebook wall so she looked in the garden .

    Someone said to me the other day that life is like a toilet roll.

    The nearer the end you get the faster the roll runs out.

    Live every day as if it's your last because one day it will be.

    Happy little soul ain't I.

    Bit off topic (altho I guess it's sort of very on topic)

    How would you describe a typical "Geezer"?
    Haven't really worked out if there's a siginificant difference between a "Bloke", "Lad", "Geezer", "Fella" etc

    "Geezer" is a Cockney (Londoner) term for all of the above.
