Thank you.
This inherent complex of negativity that we carry is purely a Premier League era thing. Prior to that it was not so prevalent in the fan base. Nothing illustrated it better than a poster stating that Fulham game was a 6 pointer in the Pre match thread. Fulham?...FFS. 

Anyway couple of typos. "send off"" and "digne".

Dave I really enjoy these reads as they encapsulate the mood of the fan base so soon after the event.

Do you want the edits?
