matthefish2002 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Think there is too much money in football for it to take a break for too long. Season hasn't really ended with England game this weekend and next week, The 2nd weekend in July pre season games start. Transfers will still be the main sports story in the papers until then, Traditional summer sports of Tennis and Cricket rarely get a look in these days. But have to admit I am not missing football as much as I used to in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't remember worrying about Wednesday during the close season. One or two signings, a bit of a build up around the time of friendlies and that was about it. To be honest I'm still the same today. I had switched off within 24 hours of the play-off defeat. It was over, time to take a break. The internet has changed things of course but I still prefer the "old way". We should all chill out, take a break, have a few beers, get some sun, wait for things to take their course, and be all ready and refreshed for a new round of ultimate disappointment in around ten weeks time. Happy summer guys. I remember when I was younger in my teens and before the internet the close season seemed to last forever and next season felt like a lifetime away. Now it feels like it's just around the corner in fact there's only a month before the first pre season game, and there's fixtures, a new shirt, and hopefully some signings to happen before then. It will all have happened before we know it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or then phoning clubcall and waiting ten minutes to hear how the international player! we want to sign is Stockport's Ola Tidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Owl 2 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Im deflated. I was fully behind Carlos last season and the playoffs were a kick in the teeth. And it's hard to get over I really want us to succeed under CarLos But next season will be tough and I hope it doesn't pass us by. It's last chance saloon.

Past Member Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Have no real interest at the moment. Watching a team in all blue kit, playing gash boring football. Signed up for the 3 year deal - if I hadn't I genuinely don't think I would have got one this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
