KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Make up your mind

Haven't really been a regular on this forum this year because I am forever seeing too many knee jerk reactions after one big win or defeat. I know football is ultimately based on results, but it has surprised me how quick some people who are on here change their tone so quickly. It was only a few weeks ago, after the defeat to Hull; I was scrolling down the forum seeing all this depressing sh*te calling for Rodgers head saying that he isn't good enough and our midfield isn't good enough, and so on. Now I revisit the forum after successive victories and suddenly we are going to win/challenge the league, according to a minority on here. I enjoy this forum and I am aware that there are a lot of knowledgeable fans who make great input daily, however it really does irritate me how people can change so their opinion so quickly. I know some fans are hard to please, but look at the position we are in, even after the Hull defeat - we are still miles better than last season. We have seen certain players such as Suarez and Henderson blossom in recent weeks - so what I'm trying to point out is that this is a team that requires patience. I am a big believer in Rodgers and his philosophy, and I adamant that he will bring us to the top in time - but what he doesn't need is fans who get on his back after every defeat. So what I would like to see is a bit more consistency from some of the fans, perhaps when things aren't going so well. Let's get behind our team as we enter the biggest set of Premierships fixtures for us in recent years.

Had to edit that a ridiculous amount of times. Beginning to think I have developed some form of dyslexia over the years!

This is a good thread title but I think its impossible to make your mind up as to what you think simply because following the team you love is all about being on that rollercoaster ride of emotions.
I never worry about so called knee jerk reactions to wins or losses from everyone on here as its those ups and downs of each of us week in week out that makes following the team amongst the masses here at least a fun place to be, or it should be anyway.

Was reading Stan Collymore Twitter account and @paulwelsh was saying just before the Tottenham game to get rid of BR and that Liverpool would get well beaten.

After the game his saying we title contenders haha switch switch switch

Well you need to allow for different levels of expectations Woolsey, Some are happy to settle for mediocrity, some even happy around mid table, and then there are some who want the team back among the top and challenging. The latter are the ones who will complain most about losing points, when we shouldn’t be losing them to teams well below us such as Hull, etc.
I would count myself among the latter group. I’ve been an LFC fan for many years and We’ve been down and up and coasting in no man’s land during my time, but I’ve never settled for mediocrity, nor do I intend to start now. If we want to be in the top 4 we can’t be dropping points to the Hull’s of the world, and fans have every right to give the owner, manager and players a good tongue lashing any time such a silly mishap occurs, that’s what forums like this is for.

Thanks for the feedback Lain. I do appreciate that some of these knee jerk reactions are based on their emotions at the time of a win or loss, but it's just the same thing over and over for some people. It would be nice to see some consistent positivism from us fans even through the lowest of times.

And Keefe, that's the kind of stuff I'm referring to. Ridiculous how people change their opinion based on one game.

You make a very good point Hercules.

Woolsey I seen it all down the years and learnt not to judge so quickly.

Also do the same in Life.

I was just thinking if the team show some consistency then maybe us fans will do the same with our support.?
Mind you we may be consistently moaning at losses or consistently smiling at wins, tolerance is needed whichever us lot feel at the time I suppose LOL.

I can't make up my mind if I like this thread or not
