If Swale and myself are leaders of a 'happy clappy cult'(?) then how would you describe yourself on here? Victor Meldrew's grumpier and more pessimistic brother perhaps?

Surely if you've had many more years of disappointment following Notts than me, then shouldn't you be more used to the disappointment by now?

Trust me I've had enough disappointment during all my years of supporting my beloved magpies. My sample size is comfortably big enough to know what to expect from Notts most seasons with the occasional surprise thrown in once a decade
Victor Meldrew's brother is a cultural reference that sails above my head, I'm afraid. Maybe I will Google it. I am indeed accustomed to Notts' failure, I just don't try and convince everyone that everything at Notts is great, every day. It isn't. Or deliberately fail to see what failure actually looks like. Which we are all witnessing now. Still, enjoyed the game tonight. Good result. Choo Choo.
