Good insight into the inner workings of the club. Methven trying to tell players what to do is pertinent.
So he knew he was in the playoff final matchday squad but made no attempt to prepare himself for the game? That's a bare minimum to expect from a professional athlete. Tosser.
That’s why you end up in the MLS for a newly formed club before your prime. We all know the clubs been ran a joke but the lad was garbage after a promising start, attitude is massive in football.
I think almost the forgotten part of the play off final was Power going off after 3 mins. We were so bullied in midfield afterwards it was cringeworthy to watch. Morgan came on and Honeyman moved into midfield. 3 small midfielders. Easily out battled. Morgan was ****e when he came on, but what an unprofessional attitude.
What comes across to me that this kid is supposed to be a professional footballer whose been told he's not in the starting eleven for a ' cup final' and wants to take his ball home cos he can't get his head round being left out....unbelievable As for McGeady iirc wasn't he carrying a foot injury and unable to play full 90 minutes so Morgan and him being upset doesn't sit right with me but I could be wrong about the injury.
He should have worked hard in training, hoped to get in the team anyway, and that if he did get a chance to play (in a very important final - the major objective of the season) he would be able to make a good contribution.
I think this is something that no one can get really. If you play for a club and the manager leaves you out, (if it was me for instance) I'd work my arse off to make sure he can't leave me out. I wouldn't toss it off and throw my toys out of the pram. Said it so many times, if you are a footballer and you are not playing, the next time you do get a game or even part of a game, you have to make sure the manager can't drop you for the next game!
So he reckons the jocks were ok but the rest were clannish. McGeady was a prima donna in the dressing room. Good on ya Parkinson I think the crowd were aware he was not giving 100%, that's not news. Donald and salmon pants know nothing about football, once again not news. Hope he does well wherever he is at.
We need to work on getting the squad unified, can't be having groups that don't speak to each other because obviously it has an effect on the pitch.
The owners not understanding professional football is not a problem provided they employ people who do and let them get on with it. Everyone is getting excited about GF potentially taking over and I am too. But he will know even less. I will certainly be looking out for swift appointments that demonstrate we are getting quality football people in, from scouting, to coaches to recruitment.
