I left England in 2006 to live in Australia, I was a season ticket holder and some of my best memories are following Utd, especially 1999.
I still loved the game, watching Ronney, Ronaldo, Keane and Scholes, too many to mention was unforgettable.
The talk in the pub was about who would be playing, what the score would, you could feel the excitement. Now it seems to be about the owners, this player pissed off, the cost to get a ticket etc.
Football has got lost and am not sure it can ever be the same. I used to get up at 2am to watch the games, now I can't even be bothered to watch the highlights.
Unfortunately this generation will never know what it is like to get up in the morning and actually go to a proper football game, where the players where the main topic and played for each other, the fans and the badge.

I moved to Melbourne Oz in 2001 and am much the same as you. Was a season ticket holder for years.
Like you I used to get up but now just watch the replays. Has not got the same feel as it once had.

I should say that if the game is on at a reasonable hour I stay up or get up early for the pain. The Live Chat is entertaining!
