Best post yesterday was from APB, who said

It's not the criticism that's an issue...

...it's the wave after wave of told-you-so pessimists who never post anything positive, who wait for any opportunity to state their agenda, who seem to relish the chance to moan because it justifies their cynical negativity.

We didn't play well today. It's happened before under many different managers and against many different teams during many different seasons. It's not something new that current players and managers have brought to the club. You'd have thought that given the years a lot of the miserable f**kers have dedicated to complaining about the team that they'd be used to it by now.

But apparently not. I'm going to have some beer and f**k off out of here.

As said, it's the continuous 'told you so' which ignores the reality if the situation the Club found itself in financially with parachute payments ending. You can go on and on and on and on (as many do on here) about should've done this, shouldn't have done that (Rob Butler does it on Twitter) but we are where we are and harping on about what should or couldve been is akin to if my aunty had bollocks. The negativity just grinds me down. It's like the idiots at CR when a pass goes astray, who groan like they've just been told their house has burnt down. FFS it's one pass. Move on. It's not about being a happy clapper it's about living in the present, recognising the Club is trying a different approach and giving the people trying it a bloody break.
