Re: Think and Reflect
But it's true what the geezer says; the match on Tuesday night a perfect illustration, despite playing quite well we were 2 goals down, if it had been at home, the boo boys would have been on players backs, instead the O's combined stiff upper lips remained steadfast and we got the result.

Re: Think and Reflect
Dont quite agree with the OP. In life if you are doing something, and it keeps going wrong, then you need to change it, or it will keep on going wrong.
At HT on Tuesday, Ross changed it around, and it resulted in a changed result.

Re: Think and Reflect
Makes me laugh seeing (mostly on twitter), the same people saying it was ludicrous to call for Ross to go after 2 games, also saying he is the man for the job and deserves it, after about 35 mins of good football.

I thought we would lose against Mansfield but after last season I was just hoping for anything outside of the bottom two this season.Apple Wumble wrote: ↑Thu Aug 22, 2019 1:02 pm Makes me laugh seeing (mostly on twitter), the same people saying it was ludicrous to call for Ross to go after 2 games, also saying he is the man for the job and deserves it, after about 35 mins of good football.

Ross,UpminsterO wrote: ↑Thu Aug 22, 2019 12:47 pm You see the absolute dream like happiness felt and expressed as we won three points against all our exspectations was tremendous
However the inverse can and will occur when we do not achieve that success
It is impossible to predict what will happen given variables of the weather, opposition and the quality of the officials, combined with the human error by our players
But the players were so enthusiastic in their application and effort but despite all their determination and effort that 3pts will not occur every week and then we get the unfair response to the group as a whole - Remember words, hurtful words on here can have a dramatic effect on the players mental health and subsequent performance
If you can’t stand the heat get out of the kitchen.
Re: Think and Reflect
This is true for supporters of all clubs. Even for those that do have all the success. I'll bet Man City supporters were furious after their team only drew on Saturday. I bet Liverpool supporters were really fed up that they didn't win the League last season. Tottenham supporters were probably gutted when they lost the Champions League final last season. It's just part of being football supported of a particular team.
I cannot stand those so-called 'football supporters' that 'just love the game', but don't support anyone in particular (this is the fault of Sky for putting live football on the tele). They're not real supporters - real supporters spend most of their life being totally miserable because of something related to the club.

Your implied interpretation is wrong to classify a group that wrote a song that song as a art form of poetic licence
But then reading a lot of your posts the comments are often poor and create conflict on here so I assume that is your core personality I will not be making any further comment to you or anyone else on a three word title of a song
Nobody else does
Be careful though he loves a spelling mistake

You do miss the point spectacularly. As previously stated, it is best not to quote bands as sages of wisdom, especially with the list of song titles accumulated by The Cure.
I see you have also ‘accumulated’ a new BFF in this unlucky fella.
Good luck with that.
