Losing Faith?

After yesterdays match I was well hacked off. The confidence and camaraderie of previous squads has dissappeared and the negativity is infecting the terraces. Then I looked up this thread and realised why I turn up every week with my hard earned £13. Read it and weep folks, I did.

Re: Losing Faith?

Don't you think there are enough divisions between Stanley fans at the moment, without stirring up recriminations over events that occurred nearly two years ago? I don't think this was what Uncke Mick had in mind when he ressurected this thread!

I can't speak for the rest, but I, for one, just couldn't be bothered with the drive.

Don't name Haggis316. From Kipax's Woking collection - I'm in dark shades and green jacket just this side of the guy from Portsmouth's banner.

Precisely Wynonie, even if you only go to one match a season you are a supporter who would have been moved when we reentered the league and would be devistated if we dropped out again. I posted up that thread as a shining beacon of positivity against all the negatives we`ve had recently.

Re: Losing Faith?

I wasn't at Woking (the reasons why are sod all to do with Jesus Was A Red or anyone else) and I for one would be devastated if we dropped out of the league. I will be at Chester next week, by the way!

Re: Losing Faith?

I'm pretty sure that Eric would prefer everyone to save their money going to away matches and pay for a friend to go to the next home match instead.

Re: Losing Faith?

It was easy to go to Woking a couple of years ago. It's always easy to go anywhere when you're top of the league and facing promotion in the face.
Try going to Goole Town (or wherever) on a foggy Tuesday night when the team you support are midtable, season, after season, after season............

I'm pretty fed up with things and have been for a long time. I'll still keep going, because I'm an idiot.

Re: Losing Faith?

Uncle Mick .....oh the memories - something to really celebrate then & that just wasn't the obvious of winning the conference - it was the level of play & performance, the team played as a team, played with gusto, hearts on their sleeves & never gave up even if losing!!! Thats the stanley i came to watch many seasons ago

Looking back at that time has only made the realisation of how lack lustre with 11 individuals mind reading with difficulty!! Not a team of recent matches, playing worse at home, no gusto - no passion - no heart & giving up all too easily!! Even last season we played with much better passion & drive than we are this season & thats whats making it worse - COS we are a league 2 team very capable of staying that way - mid table even, why are we playing like a relegated team already

Some people on here - die hards even, have suggested the idea of returning to the conference - why? its too easy for us - too comfort zone, not only for players but for those fans too, would it benefit us more gate wise - maybe not. Are we scared of a challenge ??? Seems so, breaks my heart regardless of the result - even losing that if we have to lose we lose with passion, with pride that we did the very best we could, we fought for the 3 points, we tried with might & just luck wasn't with us - i would so much prefer that than seeing what i have especially at home of late!!

How are fans supposed to get behind the team - when the team gives up so easily [management tactics + players ability being key here], we had that last season & previously but i've seen not much this season.

C'mon players/management...show us like u did last season, u keep the faith & we will back ya & keep the faith! WE CAN DO THIS & BLOODY CAPABLE OF BEING IN LEAGUE 2 EASILY A MID TABLE LEAGUE 2 - DONT GIVE UP! Getting relegated for trying hard & proving that but alas we cant - fair enough, BUT relegated without trying hard as i know we can we did it last season, would be heart & soul destroying indeed!!

There my rant over - its not a negative one - just a constructive one that i believe we can stay & perform better our lads are capable just not showing it all atm
