I just accept the fact that going to these things takes a little effort and as long as the prices are reasonable for the product and it's a well run event I will make it work.
Although I've been a little critical of the location, I can't see myself staying away. I'm already picturing being there - and driving there. Come on ring road!

Whether or not I'll do a season ticket depends a lot on the specific schedule and times. I'm sure that prices will be relatively affordable, so it really depends on how the fixtures jive with everything else in life - other family stuff, summer holidays, etc. But if you have a season ticket, you'll plan things around it, even if you have to offload a game or two along the way.

My kid is nearly 7, and is slowly reaching the point where he'll sit through a hockey game and actually be interested in what's going on. If I can get him hooked on watching live soccer, this should be the beginning of a great father-on tradition.
