He doesn't really say, does he? And he doesn't quit, he takes a 6-week break and then goes back.

True, bit of a cop-out

Sometimes even the most vocal about quitting things get drawn back in.

Yeah, I read the article this morning thinking it could be an interesting and original take on the game, but, to borrow from Ronseal, it didn’t do what it said on the tin. Not worth bothering with if you haven’t read it yet.

Get a grip, it's just one game, they are in steady decline like us, we just need Sabri to give them a kicking and win on Saturday and we are back on the up. They are stuck with Martin now, so if we win on Friday it could really be a blessing in disguise and our turn could come from next season on.

The bad times make the good times much better!

A week ago I was floating on air on a long patrolled walk back to the Split seafront after a last minute equalizer. Today's last minute was a punch in the solar plexus. Football is less grey than life, three possible results at the end of a game.

One week, two massively different emotions. Isn't that what is great about sport, though. There's always next week? If you can't handle it, and god knows most of us have seen more lows than highs, take up a different religion/hobby!

I thought that until covid. Season ticket holder for 34 years.... Gave it up this season. Been to 3 city games all season. Next season it will be 0. Fishing and family from now on.

This is it for me as well. Football is foremost in every part of my life.

I've learned to not take the downs as badly, and I think I enjoy the ups even more, don't take it too seriously, it really isn't life and death, but it's still important and adds a bit of drama to life, so I couldn't ever switch off completely.

We have a winner! Well said.

We all pretty much did this during COVID, certainly has its benefits. Unfortunately you also couldn't do a lot else either.

There's a few here who've done that in one shape or form.
