At the start of the season, I would say virtually every fan would have said that’s a great season for him.
However in reality, the general discussion regarding Wootton this season has been negative. He doesn’t care, his heads been turned, he can’t score away, he’s undroppable.
We all have a moan from time to time but some of our fans just seem incapable of seeing any positive in any situation.

I think I’ve just addressed that with my previous post!

Me too. Kyle Wootton would always be one of the first names on my team sheet.

So you either see them as differing personalities and leave it at that, or you choose to take the piss with hindsight when it suits your agenda.

I prefer to see both as differing personalities.

Occasionally moans? When we go behind? XD Take your blinkers off for a second and you will see we can be losing 1-1 after 20 mins and a meltdown is in full flow lol. That's after the usual moaning and predicting defeat pre game, and if we end up winning either a) disappear into the woods until the next game or b) desperately search for the negatives in the victory.

So we know there are people on here who are very negative about all things Notts (I could instantly name half a dozen but don't wish to add fuel to the fire ). So who are flipside that are very positive during games when the chips are down? Can you think of half a dozen, no scrap that 3 who are ultra positive in dire situations?

It doesn't have to be dire, it can just be an average situation and the pitchforks are out with the usual p!ss taking and mocking of players, manager or club. And that in a nutshell is the difference.

I’ll take your word for it.

The strangest for me is posters that only seem to post when we are loosing or lost. I can think of a particular couple. I do wonder sometimes if they are just total wind up merchants and not even Notts fans or if it’s actually for real.

Yes they are a bit odd perhaps. I'd expect them to want to join in the celebrations when we win as well as having a moan when we don't.

I guess it’s just in some peoples make up. I’ll never understand it and I’m so glad I don’t see things in that ‘half empty’ way.

I remember well going to matches in the mid ‘70s, and there were shouts of “You’re rubbish Notts!” whenever we weren’t winning comfortably. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose (nothing changes).

Mais oui! C'est la vie. Vive les pies/tartes! ;)

I would be amazed if east coast ultra was at the game last night as he claimed... after the game when we had won. Not a hint of it when he was posting his ultra negative comments. I fail to believe anyone who gets so down on a team would travel so far to watch them.
I think Keldsyke prefers fishing to actually supporting Notts.
