downunder Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) My whole life, almost every minute is taken up thinking about the next game, permutations re games with other teams, injuries, form and expectation. Today I had to goto a funeral, and even in the time for reflection I was thinking about Sunday's game. Is everyone else suffering like this too?

Swan Red Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 It's not suffering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie H Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 it's wonderful. i'm surfing a permanent wave of joy, terror, anticipation and alcohol. i hope i don't have to attend any funerals on the run-in as i'd almost certainly stand there glassy-eyed and giggling.

Or do what I did and walk to the graveside alongside a Glaswegian priest who was good talking footy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psl Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I am currently organising my wedding for this summer, nearing the point of completion on buying my first house and feeling the risk of potential redundancies in my profession owing to government legal aid cuts. And yet all I am really thinking about is football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benzo-13 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Going to work much earlier in the morning so I can get to bed earlier and shorten the days in between. Heads gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Soothe yourself with the thoughts of champions league football at Anfield next season. You need to man up as well though as we're going to be involved in more of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan Red Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I get nerves and I get the anticipation of upcoming games and the focus on what a league title may mean but we have to be able to enjoy the journey. If we don't win from here it'll be devastating but it'll have been our best season in years a season that goes to the final day. If you can't be bullish about it you're missing out.

You need to man up as well though as we're going to be involved in more of these. I don't think the nerves would be as bad again. Its because we have come from nowhere and are now so close to doing something no one thought possible. It would be gutting to miss out now we are so close. I think the pressure would be much less for everyone next season if we were chasing another title. It would be like 2007 compared to 2005. Just get it won, let us all have that mental image of Stevie lifting the b*****d seared in to our brains, so we have all seen the club win everything. Then we can all relax, bathe in the glory, enjoy the World Cup and go again. Edited April 23, 2014 by psl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonesy Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 She can't understand why I want to watch so much football. Less and less seems to be getting done from my side at home. Last night she went through a list of things that I hadn't done that I said I would. This is dangerous territory ...I am normally on the ball at this kind of thing. Half the stuff could be made up....it all could.....I don't remember. Even when she was having a go at me last night all I was thinking about was Sunday's game. I'm listening to my inner chimp too much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan Disorderly Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I'm absolutely loving the beautiful anxiety this season is giving me. I've spent more time in this forum than the Gennie the past couple of months and I'm sure my productivity in work (where I am right now) has plummeted. Even the missus is indulging me (I think she really understands how important LFC is to me). She woke me up yesterday to tell me Moyes had been sacked. I've thought from the start that Brendan would do us proud and, by f*ck, has that been borne out. Chelski now have injuries and have their eye on the return leg next Wednesday. We'll tank them. More points to be dropped by Citeh against Palace and Everton. I want to see Gerrard lift the Premiership trophy, he so deserves it! JFW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tosh Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 It would be gutting to miss out now we are so close. I've long thought that 2010 was a "hangover" from getting so close in 2009. I know that much else was going on but getting the players fired up and confident after May 2009 and their multiple 1-0 spawny wins must have been really tough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love more TAW podcasts to help the week go by, but that'd be a lot to ask.. it's all good. Get to this Sunday and it's 14 days...just 14 days...

Swan Red Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 We weren't this close in 2009 though admittedly 09's points probably wins it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
