    POSITIVITY...!

    Yes, but has anyone said "Don't Support The Team", ever?
    Isn't it just an attempt to have a dig at protesters or boycotters (who all actually support the team - if not the regime)?

    People are going to be positive based purely on the evidence in front of them.
    Of course most people are more positive this season than last because of the new signings, and because we are playing good football & winning matches.

    But for many people this positivity is tempered by the fact that we have a relatively thin squad, and also by the knowledge that we don't look like being competitive in the transfer market when a top player/striker becomes available. Not being outbid by our promotion rivals in the January window will be key.
    I'd say not Kashing in on our best players is more key.

    "People are going to be positive based purely on the evidence in front of them."

    Just as people protested based purely on evidence in front of them.

    Those people who were "positive" when everything was negative and the evidence pointed to no hope of Charlton ever recovering from the assault it suffered, are presumably feeling no different. Positivity is binary, either on or off, you can't have "more" positivity, so unless you were previously negative there is no change of emotion to enjoy when the switch is turned back on, even if it can be switched back off in an instant.
  • What ever way your switch is turned, Stay Positive..

    Of course.

    But positivity is only binary when you're talking about electricity or magnetism. You can feel slightly more positive, or even much more negative about something.

    You're probably right there.

    Last season my season ticket seats were between two or three protesters, and a couple of anti protesters. It wasn't a surprise that the protesters were proper hardcore knowledgeable fans, and the antis didn't seem to know much about the comings and goings of the club at all. I was surprised how vocal they were in their 'anti-ness' under the circumstances.

    Presumably you just lamped both sides, like in the old cowboy movies ? :wink:
  • Positivity
  • I opened this thread in the hope, but not expectation that @cafc_will 's post was not just going to be 'positivity'.

    On the less positive side I was wrong.

    However, despite this setback, I remain positive about our chances this season and will be out supporting the team soon.

    Southend were not one of the better teams we've played this season.

    Being positive, I don't think we will play a better team (than us) this season.
    Fingers crossed we don't pick up any serious injuries/suspensions etc.

    So when's the next protest? Are anti Regime songs still being heard?

    Most folks think, well I do anyway, that what we're seeing on the pitch this season wouldn't have happened without the protests.
    Ditto, JS.

    Something the die hard pro regimers will never acknowledge.
