Coming to a game is more than just the match, isn't it? .

It's not about the football © Langford/Learmonth 2022

It’s not about the thrill of getting ready for the game,
It’s not about the people who seem to know my name
It’s not about the smiles and laughter all around
It’s not about the drinks you can take around the ground
It’s not about the chant that starts inside the stand
It’s not about the players who come to shake your hand
It’s not about the theatre we witness every week
It’s not about the football. Well maybe just a bit…

I could go to other grounds but it wouldn't be the same
The football drama happens everywhere you go
There's something different here
there's something special here
I can't explain it but I know

It’s not about the chips, 10 bangers on the side
It’s not about the pitch, and it's infamous incline
It’s not about the bar, the cheapest in the town
It’s not about the din, our unique wall of sound
It’s not about community, nor causes we support
It’s not about the words, we read in the reports
It’s not about inclusion, the plastic bottle kit
It’s not any of these things well maybe just a bit
