Completely agree Sifu. The whole season has been a total drag, to the point where it really gets you down. I've only been to two away games in the league this season - Wigan and Norwich - and both of them were two of the most miserable footballing experiences imaginable.
The European adventures have been a welcome distraction. Not so much because the football itself is any better but because its meant spending money going to see new places, meet new people etc instead of otherwise spending that money following us away to miserable shitholes to watch god-awful defeats.
