Moaning

vendredi 26 juillet 2019

I'm aware that this is a bit of a moan itself, and I'm not getting into any specifics about the club or individuals, or transfer policies or anything. I'm not saying there are not considerable issues at the club (even if the reality is none of us really know anything, even though we often talk like we do). Nor am I trying to do a better fan thing, or suggest people can't moan, just as people are fully able to be constantly positive if they so wish.

All that said, reading these boards and - especially - Twitter, the moaning from Palace fans (about seemingly everything) just seems to be constant.

I've always understood that people use football as a release, and thus could understand a lot of the nonsense you hear at games, but it has extended online, every hour of every day.

What I find most weird is that people seem to just repeat themselves again and again and again and again, re-treading over past ground. When they look forward, it tends to be getting annoyed at things that haven't happened, or are guesswork at best.

Honestly, each to their own (though it can be frustrating when you're looking online for actual news), but I just don't quite get it. What do people get out of it?

Is it a Palace thing, or a football thing? Is it just the way of the world in 2019, amplified by social media and the endless quest to keep up with the Joneses?
