Agreed.

Enjoy it @CircleSeven and it's a greta way to look at it.

 

I lost my dad in October and must admit, for the first time last night I had very little interest in the game. I think it's a combination of not having dad to talk to about it but also the fact that we are an embarrassing state of a club and DC has drained me of enthusiasm for it.

 

Perhaps when the ground re-opens and I can meet my uncle and cousins then i'll get some love back but at the minute it's all just a bit empty for me.

Feel exactly the same, sorry for your loss tom lost my dad just over a year ago now, nan's slowly dieing with dementia mums got cancer football is not really that important at the moment cant really see that altering tbh.

O P spot on, didn't expect to win and we played OK at times and the youngsters did ok. But it was a hard watch, realising that we were once a club that were more than a match for Everton and could go there with some level of hope.

The commentators were sympathetic almost taking pity on our once great club - I agree that we have fallen so far and as I now approach my 70's I am begining to think that we will not be back in the big time in my lifetime.

I can’t agree Mr Blue - we played more football tonight than against Chelsea the other year (and we had a better team) and for me the nadir was the 0-0 at the sty when players like Bannan and Reach spent the evening chasing shadows. At least tonight the team tried to pass the ball and did so with some success against a very very good side who did us second half with set pieces orchestrated by a World Cup golden boot winner and a 6’7” player that England’s defence couldn’t handle. 

Agreed.

Cheers pal, sorry for your loss too.

Hope you're getting on ok with it. It's early days for me but i've been reading lots and listening to some grief podcasts that have been helping.

 

My nan also had dementia and died a couple years ago, if ever you wanna chat then drop me a PM mate

Didn’t expect a result, but watching that just really depresses me , how far has the standard fallen at this club.

 

Knock, knock, knock! Anybody there?

 

Mate it's 2021, not 1991. We have been pretty bad to rubbish for a good chunk of the last 20 odd years and it started while we were still in the prem. There's been a few ups though and hopefully under pressure from the fans right now, Chansiri might be back from his 3 year holiday and be ready to start doing things properly. A couple of good players could do us the world of good now and hopefully also for the long term.

 

UTO!

Exactly!
Some people however, seem to think that we’ve suddenly dropped to this level and they need to shout about FALLEN STANDARDS as if nobody else was aware. Bizarre. Makes you wonder if they’re OK doesn’t it.

This has aged well 

 

Come out to play @Key
