Is this the worst you've ever felt about the club?

Finally thought we were on the up with BSA and the squad we had at the end of last season. Genuinely cannot believe we've gone from that team who finished last season to this now. Moyes seemed to lack any self belief and seems a beaten man, whole squad rife with injuries and no sign of Short f***ing off (or anyone wanting to buy us for that matter).
Honestly can't see how we are going to get out this rut we are in at the moment.
fuck off.
 
From guaranteed mid table obscurity to this shower of shit under Moyes.

Purely because we were certain of being safe under Sam this could be it for me.

Moyes is hopeless.

So do you think that Sam's team would have been immune to an injury crisis ?

Was it his cheeky confident smile that kept the player's fit ?

He'd have brought a few different players in like Sakho and Ayew but neither of them have been fit this season so far.

We might have been in bother regarding Sams dealings facing points deductions.
 
15 point season was much worse

This. We'd been shit when we went down with 19 points but we'd got back up and I was thinking "can't be that bad again". I was wrong, it was worse. There's an expression "it's the hope I can't stand"; at the end of the 15 point season I realised that expression was a load of shit. I can stand the hope, when the hope goes (as it did at the end of the 15 point season when you start thinking "what's the point, even if we come back up we'll just get battered again") it's a lot worse. The celebrations for Chopra's winner against spurs were up there amongst my favourites because it showed that maybe, just maybe, we'd be able to compete, and so it proved.

Now? I'm gutted with how the season has started, I'm sick of us being shit every season, but I wouldn't say I'm without hope. We're still in touch (somehow), we've got players to come back or to regain match fitness, we've got a manager who, dodgy start here aside, is proven in the top flight and who I can at least hope will get it right given time, financially we must be slowly improving with the tv money and having got some of the big earning deadwood off the books. There are reasons to be hopeful which, despite the saying, makes this infinitely better than the time we seemed to be staring top flight oblivion in the face
 
Unless you're about 12, I don't see how you can feel worse about us now than the 15 point season, or when Wilkinson was in charge.

There'll be people on here who have seen us ten times worse off than this.
 
19 point season was worse. A number of good pl players and the 7th places were recent memory. We then proceeded to get a total we thought was impossible to get including the grand total of 1 point after Christmas iirc.
Again, we were doing better at the start of that season than now. It is too early to say that season was worse than now.
 
No. The worst I felt was when I stopped going. It's why I stopped going. Gradually I've started to care a little - perhaps a lot - less than many who are still committed. It's a better situation for my emotional wellbeing.

Thanks for caring.
 
Resigned feeling in 05/06 so was completely fine about it, as a 14 year old like I was then I just thought we'd go again in the Championship and win it, rather than thinking if it wasn't for Quinny taking us over we'd probably do a Leeds.

I think I felt much worse last season under Advocaat than this season, we've been unlucky with injuries thus far and unlucky in defeat a few times. Under Advocaat in his 2nd stint we probably deserved to lose every game we played bar his final game vs West Ham.
 
No, standing in the away end at Gillingham watching Tony Cascarino fuck us over was a bit shit.
 
nah im chilled. 93 points to play for, premiership football and no immediate fear of financial woe. relative to the likes of Charlton, Portsmouth (no disrespect to any fans of respective clubs) et al i feel good. i grew up watching div 1 footy and i haven't seen it in over 10 years. rather than spending the entire time whining like a child i like to enjoy the moment and make the most of what i have, rather than spending the entire time complaining about how it could be better. I have full faith in Moyes, and hope he has the opportunity to develop the team without being hounded out by fucknut bed wetters.
 
I'm 51. So no.
I'm 51 as well BB - having seen something like 8,544 turn up v Sheffield United at Roker during the Lawrie Mac debacle (can't use the word era) - it was his final game but take a look at the attendances for his last few games.

That was awful, the inevitable relegation happened. That was a terrible time to be a footy fan, let alone SAFC. Hooligsnism, crumbling stadia, shit crowds etc.

In comparison a 10th season in the big league is utopia - I went home and away then and continue to do so now. Still not convince of any alternative tbh. I'd only be on here following the matchday thread! Sod that! :lol:
