I did watch it. I actually thought there were some positives In a game that ultimately has left me on a huge downer.

I think the things that are getting me down on footy now are twofold.

Firstly that a collision between the expectations I tried to keep low and the hope that we'd start the year displaying improvement in the class of football we delivered has happened. I really wanted us to be flying high at this early stage. We aren't, and despite me seeing some better signs in our willingness to attack this week, I just don't see us being on the pace or as resilient as we were last year.

Secondly, I don't even want to read anything related to footy here. I'm guessing that others had higher expectations than I did and are quick to anger that they've not been met. I don't want to bear the brunt of trying to make positive posts that get jumped on by a lot of people who think us fans should just pike on the criticism.

So I'm standing clear of reading game analysis threads and trying to stick with lighthearted areas of the forum.

Couldn't agree more with you.

I'm not bothering watching our games at the moment.

Same shit, different year, and it's obvious nothing is going to change.

Captain Obvious can see the problems in our side / at our club, yet those who can do anything are instead complacent to watch it go on and not act.

Even our "wins" this year were far from convincing.

We were promised and all expected Panthers and Storm like performances, and instead have got wooden spoon Parra and Knights ones.

Heck even Parra performed better than us in a game this year. Tigers are flying too.

Fans are expected to just "put up" with the performances, and it's just not good enough.

I don't bother watching because I don't want to be disheartened or depressed, and I know I will.

If only the club saw the disappointment from the fans perspective, only then might they change things.

Thanks for asking, Mr 95% Mr 95%. Hope you're well.

I can't recall the last update, so here's a general update:

I literally just got home from a X-ray to monitor the fluid on the lung situation. I'm on a lower dose of the Leukemia medication now, as it's the suspected culprit for the fluid.

I had a blood test on Tuesday at Liverpool Hospital, prior to seeing my Haematologist next Tuesday. Then I'll have the most up-to-date info on the two cancers, the fluid on the lung and my heart etc.

A few weeks back I saw my Cardiologist, re a CT angiogram that I had a month earlier and various other tests.

My blood pressure is fine - cleared by the 24 hour monitor. Proving it only goes high when I deal with doctors.

I had a build-up of plaque in a couple of spots. Not bad enough to require any stent, or other surgical intervention. He's putting me on medication for cholesterol, to address the plaque.

He wants to put me on a blood thinner, but doesn't know how that meshes with my cancer treatment, so was going to write to the Haematologist, for his advice.

I don't have to see him for 12 months, which is a relief, as it cost me a small fortune to keep seeing him, as he tried more and more tests. $$$$

I broke my little toe a week ago, so I've had a bruised and swollen foot, with pain when walking.

I have to make sure I don't break a hand punching the TV tonight, if I decide to watch the game.

This morning, I had bin raiders in broad daylight at 8am, stealing from the bins. I may have strained my voice calling out the C-bomb to him. Possible anger management issues, heightened by the new logo and our poor form.

That's about all I can think of. Thanks again to everyone for the thoughts, prayers, public and private messages, support and other kind gestures. It's helped me cope greatly in recent years.

Hope everyone is going well with their various issues.
