Murraysrightplum Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Anyone noticed the extreme reactions when we lose and the vitriol towards the players and particularly the manager, whereas when we win it’s very quiet. Do we over react to a loss or under react to a win?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdliketoRogerMoore Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 There are quite a few posters on here who only post when we are losing and some a couple weeks ago claiming we were going to relegated because we lost to Middlesbrough! Ffs if you want to be miserable and support a team surely the gas is the sensible option! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we win normally the vitriol is directed at people on here so it’s no different,think everyone is just fed up with the petty posts to be honest (I’ve been guilty myself) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelksRed Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Maybe people are enjoying a pint with friends to celebrate a good 3 points gained........I often find that most of the balanced comments always appear the morning after the game (win or not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South-of-river Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 It’s absolutely sad how you can point that out... absolutely when we are losing it’s unbearable and people have to voice their opinions, and I for one have been of the opinion that LJ isn’t for us (in the bad times) but that doesn’t mean I want to see BC do badly.. it’s an opinion at the end of the day.. we’ve all got them.

Bar BS3 Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 It’s even more notable who most of the missing posters are when we are winning.

Nine new threads relating to today's game since the final whistle, plus another about Tuesday's game, and people still adding to the match day thread.

It’s not that though is it...I can post some constructive criticism as do the vast majority after we lose, but it is a minority who come on and start spouting Johnson will never succeed and he is not the man to take us forward etc etc...after 3 games including Plymouth I am sure there was a poll about should he stay or go and how long do we give him Just now, MC RISK77 said: It’s not that though is it...I can post some constructive criticism as do the vast majority after we lose, but it is a minority who come on and start spouting Johnson will never succeed and he is not the man to take us forward etc etc...after 3 games including Plymouth I am sure there was a poll about should he stay or go and how long do we give him In fact some were even suggesting he should go at that point...

I don't mind admitting, I am still a member of the unconvinced side of the argument, today he was absolutely spot on and has been close to spot on for the past 4 games (obviously). But as I have always said I just want to see consistency, not the roller coaster of the past 2 seasons and we all know that the next long lingering downward part of that ride can occur at any time, unless of course LJ has finally found the formula or dare I say it the dressing room has been finally cleansed.

Spot on....it really is pathetic....fans of EVERY club disagree EVERY weekend about all aspects of their club....players, managers, fellow fans etc etc....it’s part of football, but I really dislike the way smug people climb onto here after a victory to slag off people who aren’t convinced that everything about our club is perfect....they are clueless and they soon disappear when we do things like lose 8 league games in a row.....

I think plenty of posters, the majority in fact, would consider themselves to be fairly balanced in their views, praise when it's deserved, criticise when it's deserved. However, as is the case in all walks of life, those with the strongest opinions tend to shout loudest and dominate discussion and it's easy to think that their views represent the forum as a whole, particularly when things aren't going well.
