The last paragraph sums up exactly how I feel at the moment, I haven't missed it at all and am in no hurry to see it back.  Perhaps if we weren't losing week after week and were comfortable in mid-table I may feel differently.

There's some joke to be made about God and Paul McGrath's with that phrase but I'd need a pro (Sexual Ealing?) to have a proper stab at it.

It's what I get on my laptop when I click on the link. Just tried it on my mobile and it works fine.

I'm getting it the other way round. There's been some problems all day.

Good read, mate.
Here’s a question that’s, more than likely, been asked on here before (Although I’ve never seen it)
Would you give up that victory in Europe for, arguments sake, a couple of FA cups, a league cup and a top 8 finish every season with a top 4 now and again?

For me that victory is priceless and I wouldn’t swap it for anything.
Just interested how others feel

No, it's part of what makes us great.

You could have just said "Would you rather be a Spurs fan?"

Not for me, Clive.

Never. It's something I can wind my Spurs and Dirty Leeds supporting Brothers and family about.
Although in fairness they were both supported Villa in the EC Final.

I feel exactly the same, Dave.

Obviously it won’t be the same without the fans.  I’ll watch the first game and decide if I am that bothered to watch more games after that.  I wonder if this is going to fundamentally going to change football for good.
