areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I'm sure we used to have that written on the wall in our school changing rooms, along with other clichés such as, 'there's no 'I' in team'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wilyfox Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Nail on head. Overhaul was needed. Don’t necessarily have to get rid of the lot, just enough for the rest to get the message that holiday season is well and truly over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 My lad’s coach uses the same phrase. I roll my eyes every time he uses it. That and, ‘the only place success comes before work is in the dictionary’. 1 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy your historical views of the distant past whilst getting mugged off by Carlos and the egotistical instagrammers making millions of us and achieving NOTHING. I'll choose instead to support and enjoy this glorious new era with players who want to play for us 9 3 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 A team of hard workers and little talent won’t go far. A team of talented individuals who don’t work hard won’t go far. A mixture of both and you’ve nailed it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been convinced that we've that many bad eggs. I just think we held on to too many players for too long and things got stale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
