    I’m not sure I can take much more of this positivity. Fretting and being anxious has become my default setting. And this thread my ‘go to’ place on this forum these past few months. 
    I need to get my mindset back into the transfer pages mode.

    I guess it wouldn’t. Couldn’t think of a witty username so decided to abbreviate one of my favourite bits of Graham Richard’s’ commentary.

    “Dig That One Out Of The Net Mark Crossley Not A Chance.”
    Hopefully it makes more sense now ?

    This. Exactly this. I haven’t commented at all on this but have been reading this thread every day since it started. I know the trials and tribulations we’ve been through and how this has affected us.
    like NottsRam77 I thought I’d been dealing with it okay. Carrying on the day to day and all that. But hadn’t realized the extent it had actually affected me….until last night.
    As the news broke the sense of relief was unbelievable for sure, but suddenly I found my eyes welling with tears. Genuine tears. Then hearing Ed Dawes on RD also in tears - live on air - it sent me completely over the edge into floods of them. 

    Once I’d composed myself I allowed myself a quiet glass or two and raised a toast to David Clowes and our great club. 

    So the great re-set has begun and with it a recalibration of our expectations. At this point I’m just happy to still have a club. And for it to be run properly. This whole episode has been a truly humbling experience for us all and one I do not wish to live through again. And one I wouldn’t wish on any fans of other clubs, in spite of some of the disgraceful attitudes from ‘followers’ of other clubs. 
    So if we find ourselves in a situation where we are losing 3-0 at home to a team like Forest Green Rovers on a miserable rainy Tuesday night, I’m going to give my arm a pinch and remember that things could have been very different and we may not have actually been able to witness it. And then hold on to the hope that better days will return.
    Because make no mistake - those better days will come.
    UTR ????

    Out of pure curiosity I had a snoop on there earlier. What a bunch of absolute pipes. Surely there must be some medication available?

    Cheers. Maybe I ought to shorten it to that. Except I don’t think I can change my username for 12 months. That’ll teach me to come up with daft usernames while being a tad ‘squiffy’.
