The term bedwetter used by some on here to describe people who care, when things are not going well and they vocalise their concern.
Ok, what about the opposite ( of which there are many on here), people who appear not to give a sh1t when things are not going well, in the belief that its unnecessary to be concerned because somehow things will be fine, and that anyone who is concerned and says so, is a lesser person.
Anyone got any names to call these people? What about Boneheads ? Any other names?

The Boneheads/McCawbers on here just dont get it.
Chief Crazy Horse gets it........me & him are thinking the same thing.
So many of you think, if we suddenly get a good No.9, all our troubles will be over, as we march up the league, scoring goals galore
Not So!!!!
Even last season, most of our goals didnt come from team worked chances created, they came from individual bits of brilliance, mainly from Paul Smyth. How many times did he pick up the ball, beat a few players, and smash it in the goal. No teamwork involved, just him using his immense skill.
Tom James score 4 worldies..nothing to do with teamwork or creating chances....just individual skill. The free kick Sadlier scored at Sutton...just individual skill and so on.
If Harry Kane changed his mind, and swerved Bayern Munich, and signed for Orient instead, he wouldnt score many, because we dont make chances, we have been a team that relies on individual skill, and so many of you cant see that, and the player with the most individual skill, isnt here any more, and by God it shows.
Wellens said, in interviews after both games, we were lethargic, or in other words slow.........slower than our opponents.
Our whole game has to change, to a game that creates chances, or we are doomed.
The injuries are hindering us, sure, but our whole game isnt going to work.
A number 9 will help, but until we create chances, we wont score many goals, and therefore win many games
So to clarify we scored goals through smyths individual moments of brilliance, but a far superior talent in kane wouldn't be able to score through moments of individual brilliance. You're off your head mate

Another insult ...you lot just cant argue your point without throwing insults around can you?
Paul Smyth is far more skilful with the ball than Harry Kane. Smyth is one of the trickiest ball players around
And another thing......Im not your mate!!!!!

The bedwetters damage morale and make a toxic and negative impact on atmosphere.
I'd rather be a bonehead.
So you think it makes it toxic,so how about all the abusive swearing and name calling I’ve had and accusations that have been thrown at me,one person in particular even to the point of getting people to vote about me. So that’s not toxic? Not only me but other people too. People don’t post on this board because you have a few on here that watch like vultures just waiting to sling abuse at them if they dare to have a different point of view. They reply not with a constructive argument but often just an abusive comment. So that’s not toxic. I posted yesterday putting my point of view about the clubs situation manly about transfers and was accused of saying the club was lying. Not once,not once did I use the phrase “ lying”
However the vultures jumped on it like a tick on a dogs back. They seem to cherry pick What people say on here and if they don’t agree,there on them in an abusive way like a limpet. So that’s not toxic?. In my case I’ve posted a lot of positive things about the club but that’s ok but as soon as you put what I see as a different point of view all hell breaks loose. Like I’ve said many times I have no problem with people disagreeing with me and putting there point of view in a constructive way,but some are just plain rude not only to me but others too. That’s toxic. Personally I think you (LSN) are doing a very good job but if you want this board to be more popular?and less toxic then perhaps every one on here should be treated with respect

League 2 is different to the Premier League. Can’t see Smyth scoring many in PL, but Kane would have a field day in L2

Bedwetter isnt used to describe people 'who care', its to describe those who frequently panic.
Define the difference between caring and panic ?
It is intellectually very lazy to describe people who express concern re the team, as bedwetting.
Am still waiting for someone to answer RD's important question.
What is the difference between caring & panic? Is the latter something said by one boarder not liked by another?

I shouldn't worry too much about that Vegan, it's all childish stuff, anyway. And you won't get anywhere with your question because some people are simply unable to take in a different opinion than their own. So much so they will even resort to insults.

Not panicking, the word frustrated is a better term to use.
The very important signing since we ended last season, was always going to be, who will be O’s new No.9, to score the goals we need to win tight games and stay in L1.
And we are still waiting…
This is not bed wetting
This is not panicking
For me it is frustration
I still don't see how you can be frustrated after one league game - that you may well not have attended - against one of the bookies favourites?
I suppose its the difference between a glass half empty and a glass half full supporter - but as I'm the latter I find it hard to understand the former.
For me it is who stole the glass?
