Amazing how a Boro win can improve your mood

Isn't it amazing how the result on a Saturday can set up your mood for the week?

I woke up today and I have that extra spring in my step that I don't seem to have when we lose. I know I'll spend the next few days trawling the internet for reaction on our win.

I do wonder, does football mean this much to most sets of fans?

I am sure it does. I have been told many a time that life around me is always more easy going and chirpier if Boro have not lost. By Monday I have usually shrugged off any disappointments though and am looking forward to the next game, although if we are ever having a bad season like last year then I generally get quickly acclimatised. Football is more important than any religion in Britain imho. I have a mate who is a Gooner and he takes defeats particularly badly.

You’ve basically just described me there
 
It definitely does. I was a right moody git after Derby. I just thought it was a 'banker'. It was more the performance than the result.

I thought we were superb yesterday. If we could play like that for the majority of games we won't be far off👍

A big week (ain't they all) with back to back home games. 4 points min and get a run going.

Certainly does
 
Best feeling in the world when we win, worst when we lose. Wouldn’t have it any other way. Love the game and the Boro too much some people would say and let it effect me but again, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
 
My problem is that at the moment a Boro win is linked to an Almería loss around the same time. Or vice versa.

A number of double wins in coming weeks would cheer me up a lot.
 
Totally agree. Saturday was particularly good, birthday, Boro win, vaccination. I was going great guns until the wife said
' By the way alcohol has a negative impact on the effectiveness of the vaccine' What but it's..........................!!

If alcohol has a negative effect on the vaccine then it has a negative effect on the virus.. time to bust out the pints of gin and tonic!!
 
Like many others on here, I was in a very black mood last Saturday evening, having paid a tenner to watch us meekly succumb to WRD. It wasn't really the fact that we lost - god knows I'm used to that - but it was the fact that we lost to THEM, and we put in an absolutely rank performance. I don't sulk every time we lose, but when we've played particularly badly and not competed, I'm no fun to be around. It can be so frustrating seeing us fail to turn up for a game and hand it over to the opposition, especially when it's a team considerably lower than us in the league who just seem to want it more (Rotherham this month, or that terrible week when we lost to both Barnsley and Luton last year).

But of course, the world is full of sunshine and rainbows when we win, no matter the scoreline or the opposition. I've been walking on air for the last few days.
