I'm a fan of taking positive path

SUPPOSE being negative is a part of a football supporter’s DNA although sometimes it’s hard to fully comprehend, especially when you realise that only a handful of teams are going to win anything each season.

I'm a fan of taking positive path

Carl Froch loved BKB's show in Leeds

I have been there myself as a supporter and been very disappointed, and at times angry about my team losing a game. However, now I am more realistic and understanding of what might have contributed to a defeat.

Sometimes your team is just not at the races, sometimes it makes costly mistakes and sometimes it just deserves to lose because the opposition are better on that day.

However other things can conspire against your team and contribute to them losing. Being denied a clear-cut penalty, having a penalty awarded against your team. A goal against your team that is bizarrely deflected into the net. Having a player sent off can, and often does, make a difference either for or against your team.

My point is that nothing is just black and white in football. Some would argue that over the season this all equals out. I am not so sure, but I understand the argument.
