The 'I'll never be happy, no matter what' thread : Mon Mar 05, 2012 9:06 pm  

Now I know we've had a few bad years, but quite frankly I'm starting to get a bit incredulous at the continual stream of posts/posters ripping into the team/coaches/performances etc. for every single tiny reason they can think of with no recognition of any positives. Just what exactly were some of you actually expecting this year, instant title-challengers?

So I propose this thread, maybe even worthy of a sticky. All of you who have unrealistic (and quite frankly ridiculous) expectations from the club for this season can whinge to each other ad nauseum in here and leave the rest of us in peace on the rest of the board.

Can I also complain about Sunday afternoons, because compared to the theatre and occasion of Friday night games under floodlights, they are utter pants. Like going to an afternoon matinee with your Nana. Awful decision. I like Peter Gentle though.

Knock yourself out, moan about anything and everything you can think of.

I dislike Fridays also, although they suit it just takes up a very valuable day.

I don't believe it!

Can I moan about the weather and the people wandering up and down during the match, while I was moaning about Ganson?

I was thinking more FC related, but whatever floats your boat. I've just been getting fed up with the unbalanced criticism. My philosophy has always been that you should only criticise if you're also willing to praise. That doesn't seem to be the case enough on here.

Did I mention that my hot chocolate was two quid and watery?

What about the club apologists?

Drink the hot chocolate from the KC and it won't be the only thing that's watery.
