    I am, I'm definitely going to give the Matchday Recap from today's game a miss. Even though these videos are excellent viewing and professionally put together, I'm definitely a fair weather supporter when these are produced.
    If we lose, then I don't watch them. I truly am pathetic! :D

    I am exactly the same, is it maungy or miserable? I don’t think so. I like to think it means we care and it hurts to re-watch the team that we love and support lose. COYR!

    Oh, I agree, old mate. But that's what my family believe! :D

    I don't even watch the recap videos when we win. Maybe if we get Wembley...

    Totally agree plus I never look at the table after a defeat. Happy to live in ignorance... until the next time we win :)

    You must be sick in the head if you watch them when we lose.

    It might be better for the club simply to post "There is no recap" when we lose.

    Or post a song from the BFC staff singing "recap when we're winning, we only recap when we're winning".

    Is it because they have never seen your sensitive side? Remember who will be having the last laugh when Alex is lifting the play off trophy in May :D

    I'm one of those rare folk who likes Quest. I record it and watch the whole programme. But not when we've lost. Can't stand other buggers winning. When we haven't. Proper maunge pot, me. :confused:

    I'm the same. Never watch Quest when we lose. I saw it so little last season I almost forgot who hosted it. ;)

    I'm same :). I still haven't seen Barnsley v Liverpool 1998, Ipswich Play-Off Final 2000 and Odejayi's miss in 2008 since :D

    When we lost away at Norwich I thought "Oh well only losing 1-0 away at top of league. No shame in that". Then I saw the miss at the end and it tainted my melancholy and turned it to disappointment. I vowed I wouldn't dip my toes into watching re-runs of Barnsley defeats again. It doesn't make you feel better, it reaps it all back up.
