I think there’s a lot of entitlement in a chunk of our fan base. You only have to look at some the posts on here after a poor result.
I understand disappointment and frustration - and believe me, I was not a happy bunny at the game on Saturday. I left on 85 minutes and went back to the pub. Had a few beers with the lads and started to move on.
A loss used to completely ruin my weekend, but I’ve mellowed out as I’ve hit my late 20’s and 30’s. Football is really important to me but there are many worse things happening in the world or that could be happening in your personal life (as I know through experience) which balances me out a lot.
I think some people are highly emotive with everything. Things are either really good or really chite, depending how well we’ve been doing.
We’ve had it better, we’ve had it worse. We are where we because that’s where we deserve to be. We have no divine right to win every game. We have no divine right to expect promotion because we’ve spunked a chunk of money on a season ticket. That’s the risk you take. If you don’t like, nobody is forcing you to invest the money.
I do think there are a number of aspects where the club could improve relations with the fan base. Some of the communication on certain issues has been abysmal.
I just think there are a multiple things going on at the minute which is upsetting a lot of people - on and off the pitch. It’s a recipe for disaster when you look recent games, topped off with the worst performance of the season on Saturday.
I can’t wait until the season ends now to be honest. We need a break, and a positve summer window to bring back a bit of positivity for next season. Ultimately, we all live in eternal hope!
