For me this is what supporting your local team is all about spending quality time with family and friends and making memories that will last a lifetime.
It’s so hard nowadays to attract young family members to support there local teams when all you see is the big Premier league teams plastered all over telly In papers on social media.
I had this very issue with my lad lucky enough dangling him out the bedroom window threatening to let go if he didn’t support the saddlers worked .
I take him to Saturday club before a game on the 4g pitch and there is probably 40 or so kids that go my son and maybe one or two more were wearing walsall tops, loads of man utd Chelsea Liverpool spurs man city etc.
It’s shame really because many of them won’t step foot in any of there premier league teams stadiums, but would rather watch Chelsea play Southampton on TV at 3pm on a Saturday, rather than go and cheer on there local team at the ground.
well said about local team and support
i think its getting better tho
having access to many people by me walking driving talking about season tickets at solihull moors and just talking solihull moors rather than any other team suggest its slowly getting better .
