When was the last time we were happy?
League Cup Final 1996? - Yes
FA Cup Semi Final vs Bolton in 2000 - Yes (that Dublin moment)
FA Cup Final vs Chelsea in 2000 (the poorest FA Cup Final in history, after the 1996 dross) - Yes, up to the David James moment.
Arrival of DOL in 2003 - Yes (yes you were)
Departure of DOL in 2006 - most definitely.
Arrival of MON 2006 - I was almost kn*b in hand, so yes.
January 2009 - big, resounding yes. I couldn't quite believe it.
Then we fell back to earth like the 'Peterborough Roof Faller...'
I'm on the fence folks. 1st of September we'll know.
Until then, look around and see just how bad things could be - Portsmouth nearly slipping into administration, Toon being raped by Leyton Orient, in fact everthing about the barcode club.
If it's mid-table this year, or successful fight against relegation (and for me, at the present standing, that is a real possibility of how this will go), then I'd rather be here, than in the barcode's state. You know, they might just slip into League 1 with how their close-season pantomime continues.
My happiness is currently judged on the fact that I have renewed my season ticket, joined the cup scheme and will be at the Fiorentina game. If you ain't happy then you can vote with your feet. That's what I did in DOL's last season.
It's not that I was fickle (I just started not to like him)... Cripes, I've seen my fair share of toss during my supportership, but DOL snuffed out a lot of interest in the game for me, and I have other interests too that take up a lot of my time.
Come on MON - let the Malaga match be the spark to start your next chapter - not signal a repeat of the final three months of last season.
DO SOME DAMAGE!!!
