Because he can't understand why his arguments are shit, I have to just give counter-arguments. We missed the finals in 2016 because we had points stripped, not because we were shit. We won zero finals matches because we played the two grand finalists, who had better rosters than us. What happened half a decade ago is irrelevant because we had a different coach then plus we have only retained four players from that side.
Look Pou, all the reasons why we as a team/club have failed over the years in most, any given year, one could argue valid reasons/excuses as to why they happened. But after so many years of failed and dismally mind you, campaigns any and all reasons/excuses have worn thin to the point of being irrelevant to the big picture as to why we never seem to get it right, on or off the field.
It's kinda like your wife promising that she will never sleep with another guy again, but whenever you come home from work there's a man climbing out the window and you forever swallowing her dribble that he was just the electrician, plumber, fireman, handyman, painter, window cleaner....while she's laying in bed naked.
There comes a point that sure, maybe that bloke was the window cleaner, but he still f**ked my God damn wife! And no matter what excuse she comes up with, legit or not, it doesn't matter anymore. She is a piece of shit and and now this relationship is just becoming toxic and abusive with very few benefits if any at all.
The problem though is that with a cheating wife if you have any self respect, you kick her out the freakin door, but with a beloved football team, you're stuck with the crap that keeps coming your way. But that isn't to say you have to be sweet about it.
So here we are, with many of us supporters, frustrated and angry, that we have to sit through another useless and pathetic season, for whatever reason/s and there are people like you Pou that keep bringing up excuse after excuse after excuse as to why we are failed AGAIN.
Well you know what? I and many others have had it with the excuses/counter arguments, which are hardly counter arguments, because we have all heard and been through them many times before. It's like telling someone to calm down. We all know that the only thing that that does is make that person even more exasperated and annoyed.
But then again, that may be all you are trying to do in the first place.
