You reckon he’ll let me drive it for a evening, if I have a no brass rule ?

Wow what a refreshing read. Optimistic for the future , COYWM

Unfortunately that’s the first thing they prescribed me, seemed like the doc was trying to get me out, then spoke to another doc who listened and preferred a more psychological approach

This might be a bit strange jumping straight back in but I do feel I’ve never left the board, despite having to a number of years ago because of work monitoring internet posts and being in the public eye but anyways I digress. Never thought I would suffer any form of mental illness, Im a very happy go lucky and don’t let things bug me too much, just over two years my daughter was born, she’s fine and so is my wife but the labour was complicated, my wife got what we thought was post natal blues but was in fact PTSD. It was a tough time in what should have been the happiest time of our lives, my wife felt she couldn’t connect with our daughter. This became a huge stress on me, because I couldn’t understand it and i had to work full time as well as almost feeling like I had to be a full time dad sometimes I had to be away from home which added to the stress it was difficult but we have supportive parents so we got through it. My wife overcame it and got through it with flying colours, what I didn’t anticipate was how much suppressing any feelings of what i was going through could then lead to me almost wanting to explode. From almost out of nowhere I just changed, I went from being the happiest man alive to feeling low and diagnosed with depression. It was a strange time. I got help, physically and emotionally, my work were and still are incredibly supportive and I got past it. I just thought I was a fucking weirdo. Anyways since that’s happened I’ve spoke to a few new dads and they went through it, as did my own dad. I’ve waffled on here but I’m glad to see Manc and Hoppy relive their battles because the worst thing I think you can do imo is hide how you are feeling and bottle it up because one day it will just come out and there is absolutely nothing wrong with mental illness and it does help to get it out there. sorry for rambling just felt like if one person reads this and benefits from it, it would have done some good. I’ll have a visit to the website 😊

I’d be happy with Nolan or Keith Hill in this division or lower, the structure in place is going to be equally if not more important going forward though.

My job functions around weekend work, mainly Sunday’s now, so if I’m free I still go to the Saturday games home and away, nothing really stops me going other than my career which is in football, just the way it falls whether I go, buy still get a ST and if I can’t go I’ll make sure someone else does some of my mates have fallen away from it but there’s still a few of us that make the effort and spend the money

What a difference a day makes, from almost going bust to being excited about what FV has on their to do list.

In the back garden playing football with my daughter, phone just started going bezerk, started cheering and she joined in because that’s what she thought we are doing, she’s 2 and has no idea, but looking forward to having it as one of my Wanderers tales when she’s a bit older.

Had a drink and read as many news articles as I could find about it. All pretty much said the same thing but it felt nice They all laughed at us...

Yesterday thought I’d seen us play for the last time, so I’ll be going to this

In plus 3

Touch of class from Bury as well, really gutted for them

Think he deserves a pint or two

Late to the party but I’m absolutely ecstatic. Can’t quite believe it what a rollercoaster

Are you the first one to say this? You should be proud

Is there gonna be an update of some sort today?

Yeah owners on the pitch with scarves in the air before I get giddy, again

It the midst of all the waiting, for some reason that has hit home more than most things that have been said

Aye, think we’re close to going over the tops

Would love to know how much time I’ve spent on this thread today alone

Ahh Belgrade that was a good away day

The lack of updates makes it so much worse

Bit of a weird day to introduce myself but hey ho I used to post on here many years ago and met a few posters, my job is in football so it became tricky to attend games and due to my work I had to watch myself on social media. Anyways seeing what’s happened to my beloved club I thought I would rejoin my fellow wanderers in these dark days

Will Nicky Hunt be there?

The anticipation is horrendous Never refreshed a page so much in my life
