It's a serious point

The atmosphere at Norwich is mostly flat. This is because we have 20K season ticket holders, many of which are older and don't contribute to generating an atmosphere. Some don't turn up when we are not top of the league. This also stops casual fans from attending and also nurturing a new generation of fans.

I think that clubs 'success' of having 20K season tickets is now actually harmful to the club. If you are not enjoying it - irrespective of your age - then give up your season ticket and let some one else go.
