When you do it, it is frustration, when others do the same thing it is emotional and raging?

Maybe people just don't like the manager and share that negativity on the relevant site.
My frustration is more with people laying total blame at Jose. Half an hour or so after the game is over I'm pretty much over it.

I get frustrated but I don't get, as some appear on here, genuinely emotional and raging with a man who they don't know, a game they can't control.
And that’s fine for you but not everyone is the same. Some people find that there’sa cathartic element to football which allows them to channel their penned up frustrations from daily life and express it in the impacted safety of this place, because in day to day live they can’t punch their boss for being a **** or shout at their significant other for forgetting to feed the cat. They can however vent to a bunch of strangers about how much they hate the football being played under the stewardship of a manager they don’t like, because that has no repercussions and it makes them feel better, rightly or wrongly, and as long as it’s not abusive or offensive then it doesn’t hurt anyone. Most people who support a football club will have no bigger hobby than that, so why on Earth shouldn’t evoke such extreme emotion? You wouldn’t criticise people got going crazy bananas happy celebrating a great goal or win so why criticise the opposite?

Why would that frustrate you?

Some people always put the blame on one element, be it the manager, chairman or sometimes a scapegoat player.

So why does it frustrate you when people put the blame on the current manager in a thread about the manager?

Some positives to take out of that half, mainly that it means we’re 45 minutes closer to the end guys and girls

It's not only in this thread. Come on. You know well it's not.

Look at some of those out there so far tonight. Hardly a pair of balls between the 11, Kane, Son and Lloris aside. Mentally weak.

You can't blame Jose for the ridiculous challenge Reggie made for the penalty even if the guy did kick the ground. Or Ndombele giving the ball away constantly. Or Sissoko being out of position and showing no desire to defend before the penalty.

You're right, I don't blame Jose for everything.

It might just be the way you write but you moan about people getting triggered and emotional but, Hank aside, you come across as one of the most annoyed and emotional posters on the site.

Honestly, my main frustration is the lack of objectivity in this place. I've learned to accept it at this stage. Not everyone will agree.

I might be emotional during the games and immediately after which is why I usually stay off until after the games, sometimes 24 hours after. It's a cesspit.

I'm not annoyed, this shit has been going on at our club since 2019. Just don't see it as black and white as others do.

Not digging u out specifically, but Jose runs the show; his coaching trickles down to ground level.. we’ve a decent enough squad to be pushing the top four, however, he’s not exploited that. Of course, individual errors can’t be factored in beforehand, but I get the vibe that there’s players out there who have Jose’s voice inside their heads: ‘I can’t make this mistake; I must pass within 10 seconds of receiving the ball’.

The sooner you accept that this site has a varied group of members with differnet mindsets the easier you'll find it.

If some are focused on one element or lack objectivity then just ignore them. You can't change them and you shouldn't want to.

Why the actual fuck are we keeping him for a cup final? If we cant beat Newcastle and are make Everton look good, what suggests we are going to turn in the performance of the decade and beat City? what is it that DannyMcTwatface Levy is seeing that no one is else is?

I swear Jose is telling our players to dive and/or go down too easily! I hate it!
mew never used to be a team or club that did that sort of thing but you know Jose has it in him as rashford said Jose told them to be clever and go down or you won’t get a foul etc but ndombele & regullion have both been embarrassing tonight
