barneyrubble Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 I really wish some on here would quit moaning and just support the team. Every game win or lose is the same Johnson out , change the team, the pies are cold ect. I can only assume the people who do this have perfect lives apart from the football. It's supposed to be enjoyment watching football and if your not enjoying it why not do something else. I appreciate we may not be playing great but we're halfway in the championship and have 29 points. Just ask any rovers fan if they would rather be in our position. Football is like life full of ups and downs enjoy the ups and look forward to them when it's not great. Remember you could always go shopping on Saturdays and I know which one is would rather do.

And therein lies the issue. Plenty are staying away and will continue to do do until the enjoyment comes back, which despite recent performances doesn't look like anytime soon. A number of games that in decades past would have been bankers for me I've swerved to, as you suggest, do something else, (in my case go racing.) Lest not confuse moaning with calling a turd a turd for that, Sir, is presently what's on offer even, as yesterday, when we scrape a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinapig Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Can we please have a sub forum for the endless childish and often abusive moaners/happy clappers threads? The rest of us will be able to get on with more interesting stuff that might get shunted to page 2 to make room for these pointless exercises in name calling.

Meh Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 OP - was your post that inspired and interesting that it needed its own thread?

I thought being a supporter was going to games to watch your team , what ever the results are or how we play. I know it's hard and we have seen many games that we wished we didn't but we will always be there , though the good times and bad . We are mid table, and that suits us fine. We are in no rush for the premiership. We will get there when the time is right. The championship is the best in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 I just don't have the words to express how much I like this post! This thread is as predictable as night following day, and as many other threads are; boring thread, boring football, boring manager, time for another break.

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Just take a reality check by remembering crowds of far less than ten thousand on dismal wet nights at a crumbling Ashton Gate ground in the third and even the fourth tier. How can you not enjoy what you’re getting now in comparison? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmissionImpossible Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 We really need to hold back on these posts which are pro LJ and against LJ, it’s getting embarrassing because it helps neither sides agenda. If we can just support the team, focus on tactics, players, performances instead of being overly negative and complaining about other fans. I find it bizarre when people say they would rather not go etc etc when we are having an okay season but that’s up to them and if they want to be dramatic, so be it. But don’t put up reactionary posts complaining about other fans when results go the way of your argument and also, don’t just complain for the sake of it. It doesn’t help anyone. I just wish we were all a bit more loyal and supportive of the club but also not having rose tinted spectacles on all year round. I know it’s a forum but it’s gone the way of Brexit recently with two distinct camps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as evidenced by the club themselves you can discount that figure by 17-20%. Of the 7 I sit with at least 3 or 4 are empty each fixture.
