Age is surely a factor.

Category E, but your methodology leaves something to be desired . . . .

Point I was making is that whatever you do in life it takes time to climb the hierarchical scale, granted age limits the number of games you could have attended but nothing else matters. If the desire to follow a team is great enough you'll do it.
Del Woppio
18-10-2005, 14:37
ifone man has a disposable income of 10000 and spends 3000 on the wolves, and another has a disposable income of 4000 and spends 2000 on the Wolves, who is the bigger fan?
SOA Wolf
18-10-2005, 14:37

Del Woppio
18-10-2005, 14:45
the point, SirJohn, is that to suggest the only thing to measure games attended is age is ignorant. desire doesn't get you out of work if Wolves are playing. Desire doesn't pay your mortgage or feed your kids. doesn't make you less of fan.
Due to work commitments, i went 4 years only watching 10 games. do i feel more of a fan now that i have my season ticket back than i did then? no chance.
Icome in at Cat D. I'd have said it wasmore than that, actually suprise me when i worked it out.

Plus I played Saturday football fora fewyears which affected my attendance. Those were the early years in this horrible division.
