Same here Torchy. As much as I hate seeing goals against us, I really appreciate seeing good football. If that means a great goal coming from a clever piece of play, then I will applaud it. The same goes for an outstanding save by an opposition keeper.
You must have been very fond of whatever product it was advertising
Depends under Pressley, I was almost chuckling at how bad we were.
If we're 1/2 -0 up and concede a goal I'll sort of role my eyes in a here we go again way.
If its an important goal I get pretty mad, I hit one of the seats next to me when Leyton Orient scored cause I was pretty mad.
Have to say, when SP was in charge I was always expecting it, so wasn't even saddened or the least bit surprised.
Has anyone ever applauded an opposition goal before? I remember the Kop doing this to Nuddys hat trick and I think Leeds fans did when Don Hutchison scored the screamer against them.

Depends on the goal and how it's celebration.
As most of the goals we concede are poor errors I usually shout at our defence and tell them what I think of their defending. It gets me so angry.

A mix depending on the nature of the goal given away, most of the time, you see it coming with the current team and expect it, other times get angry at a player who clearly failed in his job. Other times, blame Jim O'Brien, clearly, his arm waving had distracted our defender and he could not focus on doing his job properly so it's Jims fault.
Used to get very angry many years ago but we conceded less then, I think the last few years have worn me down to the inevitable that at this level of league and standard of football, we are going to concede most games, I get more angry now about us not moving the ball forward quickly and watching our midfield always look backwards first as the option rather than forwards which unsettles a defence. Why pirouette when you can just go forward but it's Bartons signature move.
Stay on my seat, lean back and usually think to myself "well, that was coming" while showing absolutely no expression what so ever.
Yup same hereExactly this
