after a day of foaming at the mouth......

and understandably so - because it seems the only passion at HUFC at the moment is amongst its squabbling fans.
I care about this club until it hurts - I show my feelings and anyone who has ever seen me at the match over the years will know that, so when the team has such a diabolical away record I can't accept it - and I won't accept it, so today I basically exploded. It was simmering from last week's missed opportunity at Northampton, and at 15.13 today, the top of the volcano blew off. Yes we can't always win, we're a lower League club and it's a fact of life -but if you accept mediocrity easily then it will arrive as sure as night follows day.
Anyone who doesn't see that or understand that, is more of an observer of football than someone who feels it, lives it and breathes it like I always have. I'm increasingly disillusioned with the mercenary nature of footballers but it's still not something I can detatch myself from easily, although that's not to say it may never happen one day.
Until that day comes, and while Hartlepool United are in existence I will remain the same, going beserk when we score and beserk at unjust decisions by refs etc - because that's who and what I am, and I make no apology for demanding the players give of their best every game.

who has been saying you were out of order like?

everyone has the right to express their feelings, not matter how pessimistic (or optimistic) they are.

this is a message board, its where we should vent our feelings, it has very unfortunately saved many many marriages!
