No matter what I do to get Wakefield Trinity off my mind, the ups and downs, the justices the injustices, the long suffering rollercoaster. I just can't relax. Especially now. Could we win our last 2 fixtures and make the Semifinals? This team can compete with any other team in this league. I just feel on edge. How the hell does every other fan cope ? Am I the only one that's a nervous wreck everytime the mighty Trinity take to the field ?
I just wish I could take each fixture with a pinch of salt but the grip of a successful Trinity team always takes over. Hate it when we lose, total elation when we win. Does it take everybody else 2-3 days to get over a defeat? Or is it just me !!! Helpppppppp !!!!!

I always assume we're going to lose so I'm never really disappointed when we do

You need to let it go mate. Move on to the next game.
Even though we lost in horrible circumstances I saw one of the best tries scored at Belle Vue on Thursday.
Take the good with the bad.

Try to keep grounded and take one game at a time and keep expectations realistic, and then stretch them ever so slightly regularly

Get another hobby or a bird.

Seriously take satisfaction in the great strides. You'll beat Hull on Thursday and TBH Wigan struggled tonight against 12 men so no question you can take them at home.

Read the chimp paradox by Steve peters.

That's actually a really good book.
If your OP was serious, that book will help you.

This is easy. Losing nowadays no longer means a threat to our very existence. Win our last 2 and we finish third, guaranteed.

Or just buy a chimp. Training it should keep him occupied till next Thursday.

Same. I only got about 2 hours sleep Thursday night. Just couldn't get the loss out of my racing mind. Some health and physical injury problems I'm suffering with at the moment pale into insignificance.

You could get him on your permutation system for the top 8 finishes, that would sort him out for the time being

I used to get anxious at games and get involved at shout the team on I used to be in the seated area and one day I got up shouting with joy of a last minute drop goal that Sykes did and could of passed out feeling that dizzy I stopped doing that as scrapping me off the floor I still have my days feeling sick of the thoughts of a win of the big time, call me gullible I still think we can do it I still believe any team in the top 6 can win the super league title, why think anything else, already wishing it was Thursday

The great Hunter S Thompson wrote once 'buy the ticket, take the ride' and that philosophy has always served me well enough. You've got to live it a bit to enjoy it.

Devastated at full time the other night, 10 year old fighting back the tears next to me. These are the games we want to be in, great times are here. Enjoy it

I go through a cycle. We have a few years of mediocrity and you during those times, I am just grateful for a win and take defeat as a familiar friend. But when we get an occasional sniff of something, yes I am a nervous wreck but only for about 24 hrs in advance. It took me 24 hrs to get over Thursday. That was a REALLY tough one to take. My expectations have lowered a bit now; The Grand final is more remote now. It would be lovely to take it to the last weekend by beating Hull. I will be bricking it on Thursday!

After sixty one years watching Trinity through good and (mostly) bad times I've witnessed most things. I keep telling myself that I won't get upset if we lose, but it doesn't seem to work out that way, even after all this time. Like last Thursday, it wasn't so much losing but the way we lost. I often wonder if the players feel the losses in the same way that the supporters do.
