I used to get so wound up over it and remember smashing my phone up by throwing it against the wall after we conceded a last minute equaliser against MK a few years back! I once drop kicked the remote directly in to a brand new telly a few years ago when we lost to Barnsley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I remember that Mk game well and probably worse than a last minute loss, as 2 points dropped when we really needed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 I usually feel pretty miserable for a while after we lose and avoid looking at anything football related (other than this forum). I get more fed up after some defeats than I do after others - this season for example I was absolutely livid after the home loss v Preston (probably because we were so utterly abysmal), but a bit more pragmatic after Brum beat us last week (we were poor then too but gave it more of a go).

bcfcredandwhite Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 I avoid all the football highlights and remind myself that you are going to lose a game once in a while - not many teams go the whole season unbeaten (I think Arsenal did once but it’s very rare). That playoff final defeat to Hull was the worst ever - so close and then .......... nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Leon Knight scoring? that was gutting too - but I was listening on the radio to that one - plus it was only to get into the Championship not the Prem.

CyderInACan Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Had to go out for a run after losing at Norwich the other week. Didn’t really bother about the 6 Nations after either. Was proper naused off as it was a great game and we were playing really well. Usually though I just sulk. Or drink. Or sulk AND drink! However. When we are winning I can’t get enough of watching any football that’s on! Foreign matches suddenly seem like a great way to pass a bit of time and I’m always checking to see what games are on. In short. Life’s better when we’re winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elruliri Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 I'm a lot better now than when I was a kid. I once went straight to bed when the other lot beat us 1-0 in the last minute. And when they beat us 4-0 under Malcolm Allison I put my shirt in the bin. My Mrs keeps quite for a few hours and then comes out with "city lost again then". I don't read the match report in the Sunday independent or football league paper, I'm normally good to go by Monday evening when twentypence is on!

RUSSEL85 Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 I avoid OTIB, highlights, BCFC in general and the dog is scared of me too, so much so when we lose he throws himself down the stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 I find it hard to watch the highlights if we lose a game like Birmingham home - ie one we shouldn’t lose. Whereas Norwich defeat - I expected us to lose and we played well so not such a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I did some research to see how other fans do it. I’m now awaiting prosecution for punching 2 police horses, a criminal damage charge for head butting a passing mini bus and a sexual assault charge for groping a mother down by the shops..!

After we lose a game, usually there's little point talking to me until the evening and the misses knows it the next couple of days I won't bother looking at anything BCFC, very subdued feeling to us yet as soon as match day arrives again all is forgiven and the excitement suddendly returns! I find it all very odd to myself. I normally like to stay cool, calm and collected You won't ever see me over reacting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 There are some defeats even from a long time ago where I still haven’t been able to bring myself to watch the goals....namely Wembley defeats v Mansfield and Stoke, play off final defeats v Brighton and Hull and defeats against the fewers. More recently, last season’s home game v Wolves is one where I have no intention of seeing the goals again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
