It doesn't really bother me as much as it used to in my younger years.

I was up town for the Newcastle game and already several pints in so that helped blur out that result and yesterday I was sitting in the garden watching it, which was nice. I love it when we win but generally take the losses on the chin.
What do you do in the aftermath of the rare occasion that we are the ones receiving the funeraling rather than carrying it out?Some of mine are:- if i didn't see the funeraling in question, I make a point of not watching it, not even our goals, not on telly, not on twitter, not at all. If it comes on whilst I am flicking channels, for example, I rapidly change channel again. So I haven't seen yesterday's goals, and nor shall I.- absolutely no watching MOTD at all that weekend, not the Saturday or Sunday one, not even the other games.- no consumption of any other football media such as televised games, web sites, papers, tv etc for at least three days- no discussing the match with anyone other than on here (misery loves company) and occasionally my brother, but he follows similar roles so any discussion is kept short.Something else that happens, which is not a rule so much as just something that always occurs, the morning after the day of the funeral, the instant I wake up, I find myself in a normal state of mind for up to around ten seconds, at which point I remember the funeral, and darkness descends.Also, a follow up, related question, but does anyone else find watching our matches on telly way, way more stressful and nail-biting than actually being there?

In Oz I can watch all games live or the next morning. Problem is I always get up and watch it live no matter what time it's on. I am a pretty rational person as a rule but Villa has and I suspect always will bring the stupid out of me.
Funeraling or funeralling?
