Sure I could've gone to a multi million, all glittering, singing & dancing "Super star" studded stadium of commerce (even my own Liverpool fits that bill) but I didn't. I wanted the Boys to see grass roots, love, pride, passion footy, it isn't pretty & me, me, me. I wanted the true essence & spirit of the game, something that has sadly been cast aside as a hindrance in the "Big Boys" games driven by money & business.
