A defeat always seems worse on a Saturday than midweek, partly because we have all evening to brood about it, and partly because it is often a full week before the next game to get it out of the system. Add to that the fact that defeats come harder when you get used to success ('it's not the despair that gets you, it's the hope'), and it all makes for a miserable Saturday evening. But one reason to be cheerful - the last defeat on a Saturday in any competition was August 20 at Millwall. Go that length of time again, and all is well with the world.
