Lord Snooty Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Things could be worse Corky. You could be a blunt. Having the best season since the invention of the wheel but rather than enjoying it, spending all your spare time wondering what your neighbours are up to. Living on their message boards. Revelling in their problems rather than your own successes. As bad as things might be. Might get. As much as your guts might feel pulled out. As sad as you may feel. Remember. You could be even 'sadder' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've witnessed my team finish the season as the third best team in the country, getting into Europe as a result. I've seen them win promotion and a top-level trophy in the same season, as well as reaching two cup finals together whilst battering our deadly rivals en-route via a Wembley semi-final. And that's not to mention overturning their nailed-on promotion, leading to them languishing for several years in the third tier. All that, and I'm not that old. And I remember when we the second best team in the land (1960/61). Lots to love over the years, and lots not to. But we always remember those good times...

mcmigo Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I have rarely been as relaxed as I am this season. There isn’t really an end goal to this season. Most seasons we go in either to go up or stay up. This one is just a season and it’s a lovely feeling. its like a final lap of honour for the nearly men who almost got us up. the world is moving so quickly, it’s a wonderful source of comfort to me to see us in our old lady of a stadium, with big Adthe bumbling around up front, FF getting injured before Christmas and Westwood slugging it out of play. Change is coming, we all know that. This is the last lap of this era and I am enjoying each and every game of it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably we haven't provided the necessary paperwork to them yet to determine what action, if any, will be taken. As it stands, the ball is in our court Hmmmmm. Does that mean we can throw the pot of cash at it in January and the kitchen too and pray for promotion before submitting them and saying screw you like other teams have recently? Problem is I think this is how we ended up in the mess we're now in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we win it only feels like it’s 3 points away from relegation. We’re going to get hammered by the EFL, the Chairman is about to face a misconduct charge which could see him banned from football and what will happen then is anyone’s guess and on top of that, the scum from the other side of the city are having the season of their lives. I just can’t see any positives at all for the future and it feels like my guts have been ripped out....Can anyone out there allay my fears please?

Do we give up, feeling sorry for ourselves, it's not fair. Yes. Only kidding, we've been crap before and if we are crap again so what. All of us on here and those that watch us want that one event to happen. When the ball hits the back of the net, no matter what division, for that all important goal. For those few seconds you and everyone around you forget about all life's troubles and for those moments, it's all worth it. Add Iggy Pop's "Lust for Life" from the Trainspotting soundtrack to that post and you've nailed it!

Guest gizowl Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Let the EFL do their best, deduct points, relegation, they might knock us back but we'll come back even stronger. As long as we stick together and we will because we're the best supporters in the country, things will turn and we'll start to move forward again.UTO,FTB,WTID.

This season being just a season is literally the opposite of what attracts me to football. The higher the stakes, the more adrenaline and interest I have. Even looking back on the relegation years is more fun than a mid table battle. Not at the time of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighworthOwl Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 If 80s and early 90s sports films have taught me anything it's that we are about to go on an amazing run of good fortune. As as we speak Monk is teaching them the "Flying V" and Big Dave is chasing chickens before running up some steps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
