Quote ="Superted"Exactly the same - young kids make Friday nights very difficult, they’re tired and grumpy as hell come 8pm, never mind 9:30/10pm. It then has a knock on effect into Saturday, coz they’re still tired and therefore inevitably naughty on the Saturday. So, Friday nights are generally a no go, particularly if it’s on Sky - there’s no benefit to actually going to the game in person in our scenario.
We go to more away games than we do home games - the kids love it, but I do miss the routine of being a ST holder, and really wish I could give the kids the same experience I had as a kid of going to Headingley every other week, standing in the same spot, getting to know those who stand around you..... Will just have to wait until the youngest is around 8'"
Thursday nights are even worse. At least with a Friday if the kids have a late night then they don't have to be up early for school the day after.
