The players go from bludging at training and earning easy money without any success to receiving a kick up the arse and told the bludging is over and higher expectations and accountability is placed on every player and all we hear coming out of the club are sooks complaining it's too hard. Oh please, play the violins.
Anyone wanting to put blame on Gould and CC are obviously content with the unprofessionalism within the club and where we stand on the table over the past 6+ years.
You won't find success by doing the same things that have got you nowhere in the past. We should be praising those who have taken a stance and have the balls to shake up the club to go chase success again.
Some ask what has happened to this once great club? Well don't you want someone like Gould and CC to do everything and anything to get us back where we belong? It's exactly what they are trying to do and Gould of all people knows what it was like in those good old days because he breathed it, he slept it and he lived it all for the club that he knows more than anyone what is required to get back to those good old days.
We should all support and trust the process because no player is bigger than the club and if they don't want to stick by the club like you and I have inparticular most recently over the years then that player/s don't deserve mine or your support because he doesn't have the passion or commitment for this club like we do. Gould and CC have that passion and commitment, so we should be greatful and stand by them while we chase success again.....and WE WILL!!!
The hypocrisy in all this is that Gus and CC are quite happy to preach that this is 10 year plan, yet they want to change standards overnight by blowing up the joint.
What is wrong with improving standards year on year just like your "guaranteed" 10 year plan?
These are the same players that put in earlier in the year when we were down on troops. They have it in them to play as first graders.
But CC should look long and hard at himself and his training methods and schedules coz we fizzed out after the halfway point in the season.
Blowing up the club every 2 years is not the answer. Recruiting the best players (not on potential) is what these guys should be doing. Instead they keep to their scattergun approach of trying to unearth the next big things.
Any idiot can keep rolling the dice and eventually get a 6.....
