For Nothing More Than Football!

I suppose it’s quite hard to give up your football team after four years of watching them, but when you realise that you’re actually enjoying watching football more when your own teams match has been postponed and you’ve gone to another game, maybe that’s a sign that becoming a ground hopper might be the thing for you. A situation I currently find myself in. I’ve grown tired of putting my efforts into a football club that doesn’t care when they get onto the pitch, so I’m going to just try and enjoy football from now on, the way I used to when I started watching the game 4 years ago. So, this is my first attempt at being a ground hopper and at doing a ground hopping blog. The intention is to see football from different leagues, played in previously unvisited grounds. To just watch football, because its football! To possess the ability to cast a neutral eye over refereeing decisions without the kit coloured tinted glasses, to watch the fierce rivalries from afar. Will I miss following the team I have for the past 4 seasons, only time will tell, but I’ve missed enjoying my trips to football matches, something I’m eager to reclaim. So here goes, the big footballing adventure, beginning tomorrow!
