LCFC v PNE
Being at the football got me drawing comparisons between a football team and us as humans.
I have a strong connection to my football team, it mattered today, I felt the emotions. But the players are all different since I last went, the manager is different, the stadium and location is different from when I was a season ticket holder.
And yet, it’s still my club.
But it's the essence of the team, the soul of the club that is the true football club. That is what I am connected to despite years of not attending.
Humans also have this transient, ever changing nature. We move locations, we change our appearance, we keep or let go of old habits, and welcome new beginnings.
But the soul and true essence remains.
