7rew 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Ok, so we are going down and we are all grieved over it.The 5 stages of grief are: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. [If anyone can find a vid of the simpsons doing this it would be appreciated]Which one are you in?Personally I was in 1 for a long time, quickly moved through 2 and 3 and am now vasillating between 4 and 5.

gazzathegreat 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Interesting list of emotions there 7rew. Taking this as how I am feeling re NCFC.Denial - never been there, though it would be nice once in a while!Anger - an emotion I always hope for if suffering depression/apathy.Bargaining - not sure about this one.Depression - can''t say I feel depressed as such, more angry, but frustrated as what to do about the mess we are in.Acceptance - never. I don''t accept that nothing can be done, it''s a matter of those with the power to do so who need to act. I really think in a football related world you need to add apathy and frustration to that list!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Controversy 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Denial until january I guess. Now im going through the angry stage! Good post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scot-e-dog 34 Posted February 15, 2009 Somewhere between depression and acceptance.I won''t accept it until it happens, but with the games in hand others have around us, I just can''t see us escaping the clutches of relegation this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grantroederdisaster 0 Posted February 15, 2009 I think we''re in the sh*te and will struggle to avoid the drop but we''re not out of it yet by any means - Thats the bottom line! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted February 15, 2009 While there are so many games to go, I''m still in "denial". Though I can''t really be in denial until it happens, and it hasn''t happened yet, so I''m at stage zero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DONT REMEMBER YOUR TENURE AS ENGLAND MANAGER 0 Posted February 15, 2009 Acceptting now may lighten the grief load when and if relegation happens. Thats what I did for a self protection exercise for the Euro''s (England). I accepted after the Russia game that we were not going to qualify and therefore kept my opinion which was validated a few weeks later thank to Mclaren Poppins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ron obvious 1,502 Posted February 15, 2009 This reminds me of the 6 stages of a project: (or, in this case, a football season) : 1 Enthusiasm 2 Disillusionment 3 Panic 4 Search for the guilty 5 Punishment of the innocent 6 Reward of the non-participants Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fourth is characterised by not posting or reading the forum, the fifth by reading and laughing at everyone in the other stages:Denial - we won''t go down, Charlton, Southampton and Plymouth are worse.Anger - Kill Delia!Bargaining - Cullum will save us.

Wake up and smell the bloody coffee.[/quote]I''m with you Braham because there''s still so much football to go.Wiz, bless you, you do make me laugh sometimes. You were positive before Bristol and Preston and now we''re all doomed! Bristol was a bad result but we played really well with ten men for the second half and should have won a penalty which would have given us a point (albeit unfortunately for a very good Bristol City side IMO), and we narrowly lost away to a play-off team on Saturday.
