The Pessimists complain about our players, manager, owner, results................everything!
When we win they are happy, but when we lose? They go into overdrive. So they moan.
The Optimists find this very irritating and depressing when all they want to do is live in hope and believe there is always light at the end of the tunnel. So they moan.
The Pessimists get angry by this and accuse the Optimists of being clueless, unable to comprehend how bad things are because they are being blinded by rose coloured specs. So they moan.
The Optimists get angry too because they don't want their rose coloured specs to be replaced by darkness. So they moan.
Everybody is now moaning, arguments start, things are said which are later regretted and bad feelings develop.
As you know, I'm one of the Optimists. Reason being that I need something good to believe in and feel positive about. I don't want to look on the dark side.
I hate reading any negative comments about DV, MC, our players etc so I retaliate and always defend them simply because I support our club so will support them too while they are here.
But I am going to try and be more tolerant and accept how frustrating it is for long term supporters if expectations are not going according to plan.
Optimists and Pessimists have to learn to accept each others views and remember that we are all on the same side and want the same thing.......We are FGR.
Happy New Year everyone!
