Think we are all pretty low after that, at a time in life when we are not living.
Thats killed me today, hurt, felt broken, taken myself off alone down to cleethorpes and i thought this isnt right. Football shouldnt do this, shouldnt send you to feeling as low as it does. We as fans- of course some more than others- will be suffering right now with mental health, personal issues and town aint helping. so to help meself, as well as others, PM’s always open, i love a chat, only rule. No talking bout town.

Stay safe all

Yes, it does my head in.

It's almost as if events are calculated to cause maximum frustration. I mean, scoring an equalizer in the 93rd minute and then gifting the opponents a winner?

That is just mental torture.

So much emphasis goes on Saturday afternoons and Tuesday nights because there’s nothing else. So when it comes collapsing down as it has done every week, it feels like the world has ended. Perspective is everything. There’s always hope. And 60 points to play for 🙂

I think it’s got to the point where you just need to laugh. Objectively it’s hilarious.

It also helps if you spend the £10 ifollow money on backing us to lose. At least then you have some free money to spend on whatever floats your boat and You’ve not wasted 2 hours watching us lose.

What makes it worse is there's not even anything else to do right now, weather is excrement, telly is excrement, watching/listening to the match is pretty much the only thing to do and well that's excrement too.

Sex, Booze & Rock 'N' Roll....so I've heard.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

It is pretty upsetting seeing your team disintegrating to the level it has. For a lot of people football is a release and something to look forward to away from the day-to-day life.

It's not so much the being sh1te part, it goes with the territory of supporting a lower league club. It's the constant sh1teness, season after season after season that grinds you down. It's never ending.

I do tend to be less bothered by it now, because I think i have simply got used to the expected disappointment and just shrug my shoulders and go for a walk listening to an audiobook.

Stress comes about when situations are beyond your control and this is definitely in that category. I try not to let it bother me and it gets easier with time.

Not in this house! The last two yes, but Northbank Mariner and his tiny todger has put my missus off the first 😆


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I’m lucky. I decided to give it a miss. One of my daughters is inclined to stay indoors (in fact in her bedroom) all day so I persuaded her to walk down the high street with me and by the time we got back I’d missed most of the first half.

So it proves the point that it’s helpful to have someone who depends on you.
