The 80's were bad. I hated those years. I really didn't think that I'd ever think that things were as bad as then. I've said on other threads that the younger element who've only ever known us heading upwards, and/or life in the Prem, really don't understand how shit it can be supporting BWFC and nowt compares to the 80's
I've changed my opinion. This is worse..........
Normid vs Winding-up orders
Old men sat in a wood-panelled room around a committee table saying fuck all vs a chairman spouting on social media
(Relatively) Flat pricing vs stupid pricing
Players that gave a shit because they didn't earn enough from football vs players that earn more in a month than a lot of supporters earn in a year despite being shit
Gordon Sharrock vs Marc Iles
Fanzines vs Social media
We are going down. I expect nothing else. I have no optimism any more. I accepted it in the '80's and, along with many Wanderers, got on with it, and got my arse off my seat and went to Wrexham, Chesterfield and other salubrious shitholes, and revelled in the fact that all we cared about was arguing whether Trevor Morgan, Gary Henshaw and their ilk were shit or not
Nowadays it's just constant negativity, fuelled by social media, that drives some supporters to be m0ngtards
I have no answer. I'm a grumpy old fucker, fuelled by the 70's, longing for the days when social media didn't dictate football and BWFC
