Thoughts on Hilly's pre-match comments? 20:18 - Oct 20 with 8814 viewsrdaleouis

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, who actually spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of his achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least he fails whilst daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory or defeat."

Is it a plea for supporters to get back on side? Does it mean anything if we don't see results change?

Why?


It was just my of acknowledgment of TVOS droll comment "educated"? as in educated comments on here? now that's a fanciful idea. That is the way I took it but maybe TVOS had a different meaning?

Ah, thought there may be some dispute. Because it's clear there are some very knowledgeable fans around. Both here and at other clubs.

Stick to socks lad and leave the humour to the experts . . I agree, the fans are just as able to discuss the merits of what they see on match day as the so called experts who in large according to the sacking statistics know f*ck all about football the long list of failed ex-managers would stretch to the moon and back.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

― Theodore Roosevelt

is just a fancy way of saying what was said on here last week.

"They know f*ck all about football"

Aye, you completely missed the point.

When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?

i took hillys comments as a bit of a rally cry, saying that we need to be brave committed and do everything we can on the pitch to get the results. This is echoed in calvins ifollow interview, sounds like its more to the players than us and that hes just trying to fire them up for a winnable game if we play like we can.

As others have mentioned, it's probably more to deflect attention completely away from the players.

There are just better ways of doing that.

Smacks of pure arrogance to me.
He should stick to motivating the team and performances.
