Ive been down with man-flu since the middle of last week, and was off work. But I expected to be able to use that to my advantage and go to St Andrews to cheer on the Reds. But that man-flu turned into 'spending all day on the toilet and only moving to switch from arse on the bog, to face down the bog' It was brutal, and only abated this lunchtime, but boy I still feel weak. So yesterday was spent in the bathroom and bedroom, with Radio DeeDar ont wireless. And when Captain Fantastic rocketed us into the lead, I still jumped up in delight - and paid for it soon after. So I wont say much more than well done lads on playing the League Cup holders off their own park. I would have taken a point before-hand. Yes, its a great shame we couldnt hang on for all 3, but the performance mirrored the last 2 at Oakwell. Thats 3 great team displays - down to the bare bones too - littered with great individual performances. The negative stats battle with the positive stats, and Im sure the usual suspects are arguing either case on ere. But Im just blown away by the instant impact that Hillcroft have had on our club. We have gone away to Forest, Reading, Millwall and Birmingham and remain unbeaten. Thats just unheard of in my 23 seasons of support. Maybe the promotion season apart like, but come on, after the Boro game even an eternal optimist such as I was struggling to see our next point. Only the Watford game since then have we NOT been the outright underdogs, and we havent blummin lost! Ok we have only won the once and the goals arent flying in but I really dont see why we shouldnt be positive going forward. We have near enough a full team to come back from injury and even the kids are pushing. My mate says Clark was impressive yesterday and could and probably should have scored. So the signs are promising people! Even Keith sounded great last nite! You could sense in his voice that he thinks he's onto something here, ALREADY. To play THAT BLUMMIN WELL in 3 consecutive games, augurs well IMO. And I sense also, a great team spirit and togetherness developing. Im ill, I feel dreadful, but my club continues to make me smile. I know there will be an alternative view, that we are 2 points off the bottom 3. That we havent scored enough, that we lack a striker and the attendances and ticket prices are p!ss poor. Some might ridiculously claim that Coventry next weekend is a must-win game. But Im taking a back-seat from now on when it comes to this and other online forums. I will still have a daily browse here and there, but I kind of understand the managers view of this whole over-analytical and sometimes nosey society we have today. I get pulled in to having an argument or having to justify why Im supportive far too much. So I intend to limit my future contributions hence forth. Some will be glad of that and thats my point. Ill keep posting, but nowhere near as often. I think many members are doing the same, hence the inactivity of late. CMON YOU SUPER REDS!
Re: Verbal and textual diarrhoea Have you considered masturbation to help get rid of that pent up tension and angst?
So if I have this reight, you are going to stop excercising your free will to post on here cos Keith might think you are a bit nosy? Kin hell fire
