You know what? A lot of our angst has its roots in 2 very flawed assumptions:

1. That having high expectations actually means shit. Just because we all thought this season would be good doesn't make it good. There's any number of things that could have gone wrong this season, apart from the stuff that's actually happened. That's football. Somebody has to be last. We all need to stop being a bunch of arrogant, self-entitled pussies, man the fuck up and support this team.

2. That our season is actually over already. It ain't. We beat the Jets on Sunday and we are right back in the play-off mix. At the end of this weekend we could easily be within 3 pts of 5th place, maybe even 2 pts if things go our way. This is precisely the wrong time for us as Nix supporters to go all sulky and emo. Again, we need to get our shit together and then unleash some very, very, very pent up angry shit on the Jets.

I am already over today's minor kerfuffle. Peace.

Sorry that's got nothing to do with Gareth's rant and it's just not reality.

We're last for a reason and we should be able to get pissed off about that and demand better.

I think there is a flawed assumption at the heart of all of this and it's that all of these terrible results are going to be good for us in the long term?  Someone needs to tell me why that is because I can't see ANYTHING good that is coming out of this.

We're being told that these terrible results are going to be good for us in the long term?  Someone needs to tell me why that is because I can't see ANYTHING good that is coming out of this.
