A Badge of Incompetence?

Why is it that we have so many supporters who think it is a noteworthy past time to guess how many points we will beaten by?

Cumberland Eel thought it was so clever to say a 64 point margin, BEM in deference to me did not want to put a number on it, because he was worried (tongue in cheek) it would upset me.

I see the match blog reflecting the same sort of negativity, as if everyone wants to get in a criticism as if they get points pointing out the negativity.

Some comments are constructive and others just dumb.....certain players are "focused" on because they don't like the player, no points for the "haters".

We we can all be critical, but it can also be constructive in that critique, I note Bup criticises constructively in what they need to do. Others turn on anything negative like its a Badge of Honour who can come with the best example of how clever they are in recording mistakes......

Admit it if you have said anything a match day blog that  subsequently made you look like a fool......

      • Where did I say that you have no right to your opinion? I intimated that you're attempting to police how others comment during a game. Not to worry, you're not relevant enough to upset me.

        Stop acting like you never play the man. We all know you're not above that.

        If you want a unicorn driven echo chamber, the cumberland throw is more than capable of providing that space. 

        • I intimated that you're attempting to police how others comment during a game.

          Not so much how to comment as to what they comment about was my only intention.!

          Is that not an opinion? My relevance to you is being irrelevant....that's fine, I never expected anything in the first place.

  • I'm just just so over joyed Pops that you mention my name and contribution to the site. It clearly shows your utter respect and appreciation of my contributions. I'm thinking that very soon you'll be wanting a few camels 🐪 🐪 dropped off at your property 😂 and 600square metres isn't large enough. You'll need a few hundred acres at least. I'm sure Bem also enjoys you seeking his expert advice as well. Love your work Pops 

    • Thanks CE, its always a pleasure to deal with an old camel hunter. 600 square metres? how about a baby giraffe, 2 dogs and an old cat LOL

      PS Good to see you noticing btw.

      • Yeah possibly a miniature giraffe 🦒 and 2 mini foxies and an old cat 🐈 might just make it. I always take notice of your contributions 😉

  • Isn't it as simple, Poppa, as downplaying expectations to lessen the effects of disappointment? I think there is a difference between being a death rider and downplaying expectations. The unicorn need only bother with the death rider, because the downplayer of expectations is the unicorn's best friend for most of the week after a loss or a win, but the deathh rider is a thorn in the side 24/7. coolsmile

  • Most Parra fans are very battered and bruised. Only the shiniest of unicorns would have picked a Parra 30-10 win against the red hot roosters. I'm sure everyone who predicted doom and gloom is very happy to be wrong.

      • He's not referring to you Pops.

        • Oh good it worried me because I usually get on well with Mutts and our paths haven't crossed for a while.

          Deleted half of my reply. Who was he refering to?

    • Lol everyone speak for yourself
