first footy game i have ever been to and convinced 5 of my friends to come as well, all of us travelling from london.
upset we didnt win but more upset with how we played. i have disliked mancini for a long time because i think his tactics are wrong more often than not but more importantly, he seems to be killing off the passion of the players. i would not be surprised if just about all the players hate him.
its for this reason i think we must have a new manager because without passion and with all this in fighting i think we will implode.
if we lose or draw, of course its upsetting, but u dont mind as much so long as your team gave it 100%. however, since mancini i have only rarely seen the team give it their all.
Can't really argue with that. Even thoiug players need to be held to account it is the manager who instills all the ethics into a team of individuals to make them play as a team. Shape, balance, passion, skill, understanding, confidence, personality etc etc our team has none of these and FFS its a damn sight easier to get this lot into a winning team than what other managers hacve to work with. Sadky Fulham had many qualities we lack with inferior players. Birmmingham showed today that a bunch of players who play with pride and the other qualities I mentioned can beat a so called better team who play like strangers as arsenal did today [according to an arsenal buddie of mine]
