Melancholy - and the turn around (+)

[H T B]

I'm confused, surely you're guilty of negativity with that line?

No you're not, you're just trying to be a smartarse.

Plymouth Stoke away wins, Cardiff home win. Leicester Home win should do the trick

There is a decent chance about the first three, its the last bit that worries me.

I have been thinking long and hard about our current situation and the main question that I always come back to is "Would it be so bad if we got relegated?". This produces the sub-questions below:

- Does being one of only a handful of teams to have never been out of the top two leagues really mean that much?
- Would a season in the third flight mean we could adopt a ground zero approach and build from scratch?
- Will Milan Mandaric hang around much longer if we get relegated?

All these questions have filled me with an extreme sense of dread and the more I mull it all over, the more I understand what the problem is. I believe that people at the club are asking themselves the same questions and this has meant that their attitutdes have become negative. This has in turn spilled out to everyone concerned with LCFC's plight and it's terrible.

What I say is this - stop asking these negative and completely unhelpful questions because the answers are as plain as blue:

- YES, it would be terrible to be relegated, it would be the worst thing that has ever happened to our beloved football club!

- YES, being one of the members of a group of teams that have NEVER EVER been outside the top two leagues is a great accomplishment so to fall out of it would be awful.

- YES, of course it would be

- NO, look at the Forest scenario - stuck there, and even mentioning THIRD FLIGHT makes me feel a bit sick.

- WHO KNOWS, despite being here for over a year now, Milan is an unknown quantity. He may decide that his 3 or 4 year plan is going to be unachieveable and therefore consider the plan a failure and cut his losses, he may plough more and more money in, he may not, we just do not know.

EITHER WAY JUST STOP THINKING ABOUT THE UNTHINKABLE AND START BEING A BIT MORE FECKING POSITIVE!

We can still put it right - the above questions should not even get the chance to be answered. LET'S TURN THIS AROUND!

I add here some + signs and urge everyone to do the same whenever anything they do could affect LCFC. The more + the better.

Thanks.

Top post. Your psychology is absolutely right. Too many negative thoughts. To much negativity or nervousness in the crowd will also transmit to the players and make them nervous. We need to stay positive and believe.

The oppositon turning up will transmit to the players and make them nervous.

too true.

Talking of positivity, my sister pointed out to me that Birchenal always welcomes the away side and their team gets read out first, what's that all about? Negative vibes before a ball is kicked.

awwww what a day that would be!

Imo Southampton will get a result against Cardiff, who have 1 eye on the cup.
The Cov/Plym game could go either way.
Stoke to get a result against Sheff W.
Us to either win or draw.

I'm not going tomorrow but am feeling the nerves. I'm going to be totally away from any conection with football so will be relying on text.

I'm a little worried by Stoke as they are really unpredictable and IMO punching above their weight at the top.

What do you suggest? Lobotomy, drugs or a course of sessions with Paul McKenna?

I can't see anyone that cares not being nervous and negative tomorrow.

Give Ollie a mic and tell him to come on the pitch 10 minutes before KO to motivate us.

Tell him to pop into the Swan and get a bloody round in!

See what a bit of the old p.m.a. does for you? Let's keep it going now to the end of the season.
