Think of it as being on the side of a particular country during a time of warfare and the rules of how warfare is conducted have changed too drastically within too short a period of time and we become disillusioned with the wider cause and it being "worth fighting for" or not - that's a creeping feeling for me with football at the moment. I am not "done" yet and there is no drug like it - you only need to witness a match like that Newcastle game to see why we are all so hooked - but whilst there have always been predators and prey in the footballing landscape, it feels like the ecosystem itself is changing, or that we are at the beginning of an extinction event.
We'll see. I'll always love the club I suspect, but if the environment it exists in continues to devolve then I could see that flame dwindling, rather than the intense blaze it has been at different points in my life.
Now isn't the time to think about it though. Tonight is for celebration.
