    Right let’s nip this in the bud. If@RatchetMan @hughmungus @JimmyRiddle @Whitesince63 come on here and try and make out they are some kind of football revolutionists who can spot negative things that

Attention seeking; not a good look

no , we have fast attacking players ,use them , how many times today was the ball passed around the defence only to have to be hoofed because we were closed down .

Did you complain when we beat FGR last week ?

It has just all clicked for me 

We are only on the longest unbeaten run in the country because we play shit teams.

We only third in the League because  we have dropped less points than the other teams in the division. 

This has all happened because we have been lucky.

That’s a fair summary

“Fewer “, by the way; need a grammatical intervention

Yes, and we wouldn’t be if any of our rivals won. Which was my point.. Are you ok?

Almost but not quite right,  we are third because we have dropped points against shit teams, but those shit teams have also dropped points against shitter teams meaning our dropped points are not quite as shit as their dropped points.

Cheers. I do not read the Telegraph so my England is poorest.

Fair point. But I think you have to give credit to them for closing us down quickly and forcing us to play the forced ball. IE said this could be our toughest game. There’s not many teams we are going to do play where a point will be good for them.

I’m not saying today was great and that we should be happy with a point, just that it should be taken in context with the run that we are on

There has to be a lucky in there somewhere.

For the prosecution:

Ratchet Man, Victor, Hughmungus & Co - 

"We need to score more goals if we want automatic promotion and we played shit in some recent games & rode our luck. You happy-clapping cunts."

 

For the defence:

Desperado, Spider, Cheese & Co -

"We're winning enough games playing the way we are, we don't need to score more goals because our defence is solid and we keep the ball so it gives less chance for the other team to score. You wrist-slashing cunts."

 

That's the recurring argument here. Anything else to discuss?

 


at least you can laugh about it 😁

we rode our luck , fgr had 2 great chances in the first half , could have been a different outcome if they had gone in.

we probably had 2 ourselves but they didn't go in  either.

we have the potential to be the 96-97 team , but aren't doing it for whatever reason.

Still would have considered it two points dropped against a side challenging for relegation to the national league. 
 

 

We’re third.

You seem unhappy with this as your default cognitive setting is plainly to look for negatives regardless of the situation you find yourself in.

I have tried the basics, but you’re struggling with them. Anything more complicated would clearly be a waste of time for us both.

I cannot help you or cheer you up it seems. Look at it like this - if my auntie had bollocks, my uncle would still have bummed her.

And I should have added, your opinion is as justified as anyone else and I like the debate as @Johnnyrottenwill vouch for. I don’t make it personal. Always up for a good debate, especially with someone who is a passionate bwfc fan 👍

Get a room ffs! 😁

we drew at home to Colchester mate, hardly a result. We are lucky to stay third today. FACT

Well the luck comes from those shitter teams being less shit against the shit teams, but being their normal level of shit when we play them.

The question was 'did you complain?'  and to add more information think we were 'shit' ?

By relying on results elsewhere 

I thought it was the 36 points from 42 tbh

I’m happy to be third. At this point I’m just enjoying grinding the gears of all these happy clappers.

no , i didn't but i wasn't easy watching it , we need to get a 2-3 rd goal to relax and enjoy it , which you cannot say you are comfortable watching it  at the moment.

You keep saying we are lucky to be third.

Let these words echo around your head for a bit, see if they land on any dense cellular structures that have the capacity to absorb them:

We are third because we have more points than the teams below us. The league does not lie.

Fucking hell fire. The windows inside your house must be spotless.
