tisspahars Posted 2 February, 2013 Share Posted 2 February, 2013 ....who thought people who said Schneiderlin was always a Premier League player were deluded. ....who saw Luke Shaw in the cup and said he was nowhere near ready. ....who said Rodriguez was a scandalous waste of £7M. ....who said after the opening handful of games that we were going to get less points than Derby. ....who are now saying "and that's why we're going down" without considering for a second what b0llocks they are talking. A bit sad, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 2 February, 2013 Share Posted 2 February, 2013 I always go along with the popular concensus of things, to stop me from being hounded out of SaintsWeb by my peers. :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tisspahars Posted 2 February, 2013 Author Share Posted 2 February, 2013 It's all about the kneejerk. That's my main point norwaysaint. I don't know if we will stay up (I strongly suspect we will), and i've got no problem with people having differing opinions - it is those for whom everything is black and white, who get things hopelessly wrong and forget that prediction ever happened in their desperate scramble to spout the next pile of s***e that get me.

norwaysaint Posted 2 February, 2013 Share Posted 2 February, 2013 It's a maturity thing. I was probably the same in my twenties. Younger people like TDD etc always feel they have to know. There's no room for saying "I'm not sure but I think..." or even using the word maybe. It has to be a statement and it has to be definite. You sort of grow out of that after a few years, because you realise it doesn't make you sound like the smartest person in the room. Of course I may be wrong about all this...

Winnersaint Posted 2 February, 2013 Share Posted 2 February, 2013 Possibly one of my most bad tempered moments at home when I was younger was when Saints got stuffed by Watford 7-1. I was probably in my early 20's. Life moves on. I'd still be mighty peeved if anyone stuffed us 7-1 now but it would be greeted with resigned acceptance of that is how things are, rather than an opportunity to rant on an Internet Forum. There are times when I am convinced that the web brings out the worst in people particularly those who know no different because they have grown up with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
