Thedelldays Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 tell you what...do NOT log onto here if we are not 3-0 in the first 20 mins on tuesday Alpine Saint will be in full flow we are starting to see elements of some sort of break down since the weekend already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 I just avoid the obvious ridiculous threads. Like the should Brighton be investigated thread. I can only imagine some of the rubbish the OP must've been spouting, so I can't even bring myself to read that. I also imagine the Jose Fonte thread to be full of people claiming he's not good enough after one mistake, so I've avoided that one as well.

doddisalegend Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 So today is the first day i've allowed myself to look at football sites following this weekends dire results.... does anyone else do this? Sometimes. Normally I'll get the papers on sunday for the footie (didn't bother this weekend) gave the football league show a miss to. If we do go up can't imagine I'll want to watch MOTD to often either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotonjoe Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Avoid all threads named after a player or the manager. Oh, and the post-match reaction thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotongomad76 Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Did this in 2005 when we went down. Avoided pretty much everything football related for about a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedelldays Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 I am really happy I had no internet for a fair few weeks when we were on the wobble at the turn of the year I had a look back a few weeks ago and it was embarrassing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 I could only just bring myself to watch the Skate highlights the other day. Imagine I'll get round to the Reading highlights later in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchards Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Not been back on the KUMB site since the weekend, I will after Tuesday IF..... we have another Carlsberg midweek. i do remember how I stayed away from the Huddersfield one for 4 months when they pipped us to the playoff spot a couple of years ago as it hurt too much.

Thedelldays Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 I could only just bring myself to watch the Skate highlights the other day. Imagine I'll get round to the Reading highlights later in the week. the skate game was worse....after the dust settled and the stupid reactionary threads had gone off the main page.....looking at the highlights again, we played them off the park and for 2 wonder goals (deffo the first one) and a keeper in inspired form...we should have won.....

obelisk Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 tell you what...do NOT log onto here if we are not 3-0 in the first 20 mins on tuesdayActually if we are 3-0 up inside 20 minutes I might be thinking it's a bit too early to be celebrating - even 3-0 with 10 minutes to go still has me slightly pertubed. Plenty of time to get back at us and all that, especially given Saints history. I'll try and keep any negative thoughts to myself though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take out the wonder goals and that could describe the reading game too. I've just filtered back onto the site today and glad I stayed away. Would have been 10 times more depressed if i'd have listened to most on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Actually it is worth going on to the other sites to pick yourelf up. KUMB fans are still pessimistic about their auto promotion chances which adds realism to the debate. They have to win all their games and we have to trip up in two of ours. Not impossible but the odds are against it. The loss to Blackpol aside, our team have played well and have retained their confidence, workrate and self belief. Shame our fans can't do the same.

We were very poor by our standards in the Skate game. Haven't seen a team in this league all season hoof it as much as we did in the 2nd half.

Give it to Ron Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Took me until Sunday night to get over Friday's game and all the crap results on Saturday. It wasn't we played badly either on Friday just we got punished for our errors whereas we had several that didn't really have an end product to good play.

buctootim Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Saints world-ending tragedies (a 2-2 draw against Pompey or worse) I stay away from this site for about 24 hours. Diana dying stuff I left all media alone for about three days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfc4prem Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 Only football related thing I have indulged in since the Reading disaster was MOTD. Avoided the FLS, Twitter, Saintsweb *****il y'day eve), and any other football related site. I just sort of detach myself from all things Saints, just get on with life for three or four days.

Kingsland Red Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 So today is the first day i've allowed myself to look at football sites following this weekends dire results.... does anyone else do this? Generally 24 hours, by which time I realise that I watch the Saints but have very little ability to influence what actually happens on the pitch !

Gigersaint Posted 16 April, 2012 Share Posted 16 April, 2012 I always tend to come straight here, if I'm not on here already. I find that reading through other peoples post match opinions often helps the overall perspective of the game and not just my own thoughts of how I saw the game. The majority of the time when I read through the post match reactions I more often than not feel so much better that I'm not the only supporter that feels thoroughly ****ed off when we lose. Once the post count rises on all different threads about different aspects post match I've usually read enough to see the positives for the next game and feel a touch happier despite a few of my own nagging doubts. Overall, I think getting a wider opinion of a game after a loss is much healthier than stewing in your own thoughts of how bad it was when a little more perspective can open your own view of it on reflection... However there are the odd few times when it was as bad as you originally thought but thankfully these days they are very few and far between!

Fan The Flames Posted 17 April, 2012 Share Posted 17 April, 2012 I didn't know Saturdays result (apart from Brightons) until I was man enough to open the football pages at 10.30 Sunday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thedelldays Posted 17 April, 2012 Share Posted 17 April, 2012 when we lose (or even draw) you see one or two forum posters go into some sort of break down in front of your very eyes...and it is quite entertaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
