I went to pretty much every home match and to just over a third of the aways this season. Next season is interesting for me as my eldest is at uni miles aways so doesnt currently come and my youngest has chosen to get his season ticket in block 11 with his mates.
With that in mind, Im not so sure I will be there as much next season and despite saying the same last season and then caving in anyway, I dont think I will be renewing my season ticket next season.
Theres various reasons including the above mentioned one, needing to spend more time doing other things, not enjoying it nearly as much as previously, not feeling any connection to the club currently.
I think most sports fans have some 'considerations' at the end of a season (especially one with a sad end)...couple of months off and the deluded optimism restarts again ...you'll be there!
In previous seasons I think I would have agreed with you, certainly last season I was resolved to not renewing and picking my home and aways to suit but caved last minute and ended up going to about the same amount of matches as usual.
For next season though, Im pretty certain I wont renew and will be there a whole load less. We have just finalised the purchase of a house abroad that we want to do some work to so I will need to be there for some of that and quite frankly, the thought of being at that house in that climate pretty much dominates my every waking thought!
