Agreed, but sadly it's all to easy to get out of the habit, especially for those who became completely disillusioned with what went before.
Using myself as example,
My Mrs arranged for us to go to a wedding reception (evening do) on saturday, there is no way I could get home before 20:30, then wash / change etc, we would arrive @ 21:30 earliest. So cannot make the match.
In years gone by, she would know better than book this in, without checking it out first, but due to my self imposed Pulis exile, followed by Pardew dis-enchantment she quite understandably thinks I'm available to her.
Then my drinking mates have been on at me to have one of our saturday sojourns to Cambridge or Norwich if that clashes with Baggies its a tough choice.
Theres an old business adage that its @10x easier to get a new customer than it is to get an old customer back, sadly the club allowed us to drift away and it will take a while to attract us all back.
