Switching matches off

[The Golden Eel]

Pretty much never but I turned off that Real Madrid away match during Covid after they went 1 up. Champions League knock out match in a training ground in front of no fans? No thanks...

I was brought up to never leave the game before the end and to this day, it annoys the fuck out of me to see any of our fans off early. It's not the Liverpool Way. 

 

I hate watching us on TV at home  totally different experience than being at the match and I get far more critical of the players, more angry and judgemental.

All depends on what mood I’m in

I switched off Radio Merseyside or Radio 2 when Bryan Hamilton scored against us in the semi-final in 1977. Fortunately, Clive Thomas had a direct hotline to the devil and was informed of the deal I made with him as I mooched about my bedroom booting my Action Man around.

 

The most recent one I remember was the 2-0 derby defeat at Anfield a couple of seasons ago, I don't usually get annoyed at games these days, but the meekness we showed in that game and the ridiculous penalty decision really pissed me off.

I remember a game against Birmingham under Ged when we were abject. We made Christophe Dugarry look like Zidane. Clinton Morrison got their second goal, which was enough for me to switch off.

Very close to adding a third City game to my list today. 2 goals down at the Etihad with 30 minutes to go feels never ending. I don’t blame any of the away fans who said fuck it and left.

Watched first half. Saw the second goal go in and turned off and did some work instead.

At the point of not switching matches on soon

Don't even turn them on anymore. When the team starts making an effort I'll make the effort to watch them again. 

 

Got more important things to do these days anyway so watching this shambles week in week out is way way way down on my priority list. 

[Trumo]

Our players often do it at half time.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I bailed out of the match thread before the end.

We've only applied ourselves Vs the top 6. I'm of the same opinion, if the players can't be arsed to turn up, why would I cough up any amount of money to turn on?

 

Fuck that shit. Life is busy enough without sitting through 90 minutes of 11 players not giving a shit.

I did it yesterday for the first time ever. At 3-1 I flicked backwards and forwards and at 4-1 turned it off completely.
