To talk up or talk down??
When your team is going well do you prefer the underdog tag and play your team down or talk up how amazing they are??? Which is the best psychology??
My opinion, I love being underdog but hasn't been too successful as of late, so maybe if you keep telling yourself you are the best then you will believe it... Or does that create too many enemies....

Very quiet from any of you lot at the moment

Re: To talk up or talk down??
whether we talk ourselves up or down is irrelevant.
the fact there is a topic on here about how people should act is pathetic, next we will start a topic on how to iron pleats.......grow some balls boys.....
I rest my case your honour, no more comments on potentially the most shite topic ever discussed on here..

Re: To talk up or talk down??
