"Praise the Lord for beer!"That was Disco Bob's comment on Talking Balls about yesterdays defeat at home by Burnley. And his sentiments are pretty much echoed by everyone else on the message boards.
Angry, disappointed, frustrated, sad - all words to describe how Leicester City fans are feeling at the moment. Even Frank Burrows had to admit it was not an impressive display;
"We played poorly and I would be telling lies if I said anything else."
Looking at the league tables we are only 2 points clear of the relegation zone at the moment.
So where is a girl supposed to look for comfort in such difficult circumstances (apart from chocolate which we have discussed before)? No manager. Poor performances. Fed-up fans.
Well I did find this, which helped me crack a smile - for a few minutes at least.
Not that the researchers in this article would be fooled by that smile of course. If they used their emotion-recognition software on my facial expression right now they would find;
- 40% pride at being a Foxes fan
- 30% frustration waiting for a new manager
- 20% hope that things will get better
- 10% fear that they won't
One of the things I've come to like about football....is that you can't have the good......without having the bad. This is another thing football teaches us about life.
ReplyDeleteYou'll bounce back. Things will get better. Supporting the boys was never more important......as, of course, you'll know from personal experience
