1) Flounce about impending doom when we're on a record club run of victories.
2) Flounce about the minority of people on the forum who flounce about impending doom.
3) Flounce about the small group of people who flounce about the minority of people on the forum who flounce about impending doom.
4) Admonish posters who say "We're going to win the league" while incessantly stating "we WILL drop points before the end of the season." Neither of which are certain.
5) Admonish posters who talk about setting new club or league records and warn of the complacency that it could lead to while spouting the mantra "One.Match.At.A.Time."
6) Make posts which are unnecessarily long to make a point that could have been made in about 3 sentences. (credit to Bluesym)
Ask yourself, if you were a player, would you prefer to play in front of 26k optimistic fans singing their hearts out or in front of a similar crowd not getting particularly excited because, who knows, it might lead to disappointment?
Come on peeps, dream a little, it's infectious and it's actually very healthy for you.
If you're the type that fears failure so much that you limit its pain by not get excited, then there's always window cleaning or ironing to keep your heart rate down. [Post edited 10 Apr 2023 14:20]

People are just used to being burnt.
I do agree though. We should all be enjoying this season.
One more thing to ad to your list is the recent trend of gatekeeping who is allowed to enjoy it and bringing up old posts to attack people. All very odd. |  |

"That's you that is"!

Nope, this thread was inspired by me being point 3. | | | |

Agree. But I'm a long-winded old git that likes writing lists so forgive my moment of self-satisfaction. | | | |

Don't mistake saying points being dropped as being negative. I'm as delighted by the quality of play and results as anyone and if we don't drop points between now and then I wouldn't care a jot about being wrong. I'll be too busy dancing on the Cornhill!
For what its worth, I love the mixture of attitudes on here. It makes it interesting. You can engage with what you want and ignore the rest of you wish.
COYBs! |  |

The 'one game at a time' concept is for the players, who have to 'trust the process'. We fans can get as excited as we like. I'm looking forward to McKenna getting excited for once if and when we do actually get promoted. Even Sir Alf might have allowed the players to undo their top buttons and loosen their ties. I'm now going to leave myself open to those in group 5 - win our next 2 and we'll equal our record points haul ever. [Post edited 10 Apr 2023 14:28]

Me too. That's why my thread was entitled "Things we do well at TWTD"
My post wasn't a criticism of anyone, merely an observation. I'm not a divisive person - what's the point, we're all Town fans. If we can't get along when we're winning, we never will.
My thread was just about upping the self-awareness of people on here - we really do need to be revelling in these moments not moderating our enthusiasm for fear of failure - doing that will more likely bring on disappointment than stave it off. | | | |

Urgh, not another flounce about people flouncing about people flouncing about people flouncing.
Yeah, I had you down as 3. |  |
