It's disheartening to see the level of bad language and rude jokes being used in this forum. It creates a negative and hostile environment for everyone involved. We should strive to have respectful and constructive discussions that focus on sharing knowledge and learning from each other, rather than resorting to offensive language and distasteful jokes. Let's all make an effort to maintain a level of maturity and professionalism in our interactions.

Swearing is often an expression of intense emotions, and in the context of a forum dedicated to discussing football, it can be seen as a natural way for fans to express their enthusiasm, frustration, or disappointment. Additionally, football culture itself often includes colorful language, both on and off the field, further normalizing its use within the community. However, it is mportant to acknowledge that excessive or targeted use of offensive language can still be harmful and this should indeed be moderated accordingly.

I just hope it gets sorted this week as another week will be too much stress.I think part of the reason for the catastrophising is that, for much of this season, we've been absolutely brilliant and now we're tired and injury ridden, we're way less impressive, which is kind of inevitable.I am watching Man U - Arsenal at the moment, and just found myself thinking, fuck, we beat this Arsenal team TWICE. We beat Man City and them in the space of less than a week. We had 22 shots against Man City, and they had 2, both of which came in the same action.That's how good we were for large parts of the season, so it's tough seeing us struggling at the arse end of it, and it becomes much more tempting to think we're going to shit it away.
