Is it just me

Whenever Barnsley lose the team,manager,owner/board and tea lady are vilified by certain posters but when we win the said above are mainly absent.After the Birmingham game some even questioned whether a takeover was a good thing because we were doing alright by breaking even and developing a decent team.When we lose it seems the foundations of the club are crumbling.Why does losing a game of football change peoples perceptions of what BFC are trying to achieve.

 

I suppose i'm the opposite. I post when we win, but when we lose, I try and avoid the site because a few posters make my piss boil.

 

Because football supporters - me and everyone else on here included are fickle and a bit mental. It comes with the territory.

 

You have to be mental to cosider going to games away from home where thre is usually little chance of a win yet we still go in reasonably impressive numbers in relation to our home support.

A case in point, I'm not going to Hull beacuse I'm away but I'm actually considering Derby.

 

I'm also considering derby. Straight from work sithi

 

Logic and reason are left at home in a locked casket as soon as the first spark of interest in a football team happens.

 

Correct. If logic were to be applied virtually no-one would watch us. That is before the attitude of those controlling the club.

 

Barnsley FC brings out my schizophrenia. I once took my bird to a match and she refused to go ever again because she didn't liek the BFC fanatic that came out during the game. She didn't want to go for a drink after either, because I became clinically depressed due to the defeat.

The BBS just generally brings out the worst in me.

It's all w4nk. I've done.

 

PS, I'm usually inhebriated to some degree when posting on the BBS.

I've done wi' ale n'all. It's w4nk.

 

Our gurt went to one game - Plymouth away when we won to stop up. Scarred for life. Views me with even more suspicion than before.

 

That explains it then lol

 

I think I've got better with age. Premier League season I would come home after we'd lost, close the curtains and lay in my bedroom in the dark listening to The Drugs Don't Work on repeat for several hours. And I dumped my then girlfriend who was a Wednesday fan cos she thought Di Canio's last minute winner at Hillsboro was funny. Which in hindsight was just good sense.

 

I once offered to take my girlfriend to a game at Oakwell. I got cold feet and kicked her off the 226 at Stairfoot. Think it was Donny at home when JCR scored that goal.

She's now my ex.

 

There does seem

To be a case of defeats generating a level of passion and angst not matched with victories. Yet, for some reason, there's a level of deniability over it.
Patience & tolerance seems more and more to belong to the past. In fact, it appears to be regarded as a weakness. Everything with regards to success has to be right here, right now.

 

The first game I took my now wife to was against Burnley on Boxing Day and we were sat in the East Stand lower next to their fans, 5,000 of which proceeded to sing 'Get your tits out for the lads' for the majority of the game. Her "I'm never coming again" comment was quickly recinded when Morgan scored the last minute winner!

 

Still not taken the current one to a game. I've offered Wednesday at home but I think I might regret that.

 

I took my girlfriend to a pre season friendly

Against Leicester City, telling her she should look out for the talented players on display like Ronnie Glavin, Mick McCarthy, Gary Lineker & Ian Banks (who we'd just sold to City). On the way to the ground, she told me the only other stadium she'd been in was the Nou Camp in Barcelona on a school trip.
Her: "Is Oakwell like the Nou Camp?"
Me: "Errrr......"
It didn't have too traumatic effect on her as we celebrated our 28th Wedding Anniversary earlier this year!

 

Thought I'd blown it after she froze to death against Ipswich last season, especially when I watched the whole game again when we got in despite the fact we'd lost. But she did come to Peterborough last season when she was pregnant with our little un, which I'm classing as her first game seen as we won

 

I refuse to attend a game with any bird. I go football for some peace n quiet.

 

Took my girlfriend to the Palace match a few weeks ago, she found my aggressive behaviour strangely attractive. Pap'd herself when Perkins scored because she wasn't expecting it, and she thinks Mellis is *****.
