BTW, your profile suggests a different age. I'll leave it there...

There is an old guy who sits about 5 seats away from us. Has a pair of binoculars and an old timey hat. He must be about, oh I don't know, say...100 years old.

Great to see the age demographics of the nix.


And Cron, I think I'm in one piece. I feel old though

I work in a mall in Newmarket in Auckland. There's a hundred and something year old (I think) guy who wanders around the mall muttering all day, every day. He wears what is practically a full Phoenix kit. He's my favourite old supporter. I don't know if he even knows he's wearing Phoenix gear because he has the same outfit on every day so I get the feeling they are his only clothes. But still, top bloke (probably)..

There was an older gentlemen(late 60s?) right behind me in aisle 22 in the FZ in our first season - I've noticed him and his son have moved 2 or 3 rows further up now. I must have been too much for them

 mum is 70 and came to half the games first season then gave up and became a season member for last two season.  this may be canceled out by the fact that she is english and supports southampton so wanted to support a team that can't be relagated (tossed out completely  . . . but not relegated lol)
