Sports psychologist, Professor Craig Mahoney:

"There'll be a period of reflection. That will have started last night.

"The manager will have taken the team aside at the end of the match and had a private conversation with the group as a whole and with players individually.

"He'll have started to work on what's required, which is a set of mental skills. The players are physically and technically able so it's the mental skills that become important now, in enabling them to release this game and let it go, to thought-stop any negative aspects of recollection of the game.

"Thought-stopping is a technique. You say 'park that, let it go. What's the positive we can take from the game?'"


Yes, because none of them would have ever lost a football match before

Psychiatry is a bona fide branch and discipline of medicine and one must qualify first as a doctor before being allowed to specialize in the field. The field of Psychology, on the other hand, is riddled with frauds, charlatans and outright ****s.

You are, of course, correct. However, psychiatry in the Freudian sense of psychoanalysis and ‘let’s all have a chat about stuff and you’ll feel all better’ is also a load of old balls.

It’s increasingly clear that what we think of as ‘the self’ is just brain chemistry.

He must’ve blown a fuse last night imo

You are completely mistaken, I'm afraid. Psychology is the greatest science, greater than all the others. It is the one ring which rules them all, with all being the other rings, and those rings symbolically representing the aforementioned sciences.

Totem and Taboo is my bible, Torah, or what have you.

It's not even proper, verifiable science imo. It's speculation. I expect you're too Jung to understand.

They said the same thing about the early alchemists, and look who is famous now. The early alchemists. Paracelsus up in this b!tch!

That's quite true actually. Mark Knopfler did end up doing very well for himself.
