I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

Blogpost includes two paragraphs of what seem like pretty frank and honest observation, from one of the few guys who can hold his head high in a team of general underperformers. I suspect few on here would take issue with what he said since he seems to be echoing general sentiment? Some pertinent extracts:



You agree with the fans then, rather than with your head coach who came across as being in denial? Maybe your head coach would have attracted less derision had he been as candid as you.



And again. Nail. Head.



Yup. Sounds like confidence is shot, tbh. A home win against Wigan would probably do wonders (until we then go on to lose against Salford and Celtic again... :FRUSRATED:



Encouraging if true, as suggests no trouble in the camp. But all the sticking together counts for nothing if we see more of the same on the park. And as have the fans - but we need something to believe in right now.



We know, and we sort of noticed that. See above!



The really interesting bit. Is this Morro's hope, or is it proxy-for-Macca? Either way, again he's agreeing with the prevailing opinion on here. And by implication Morro is criticising some of his fellow players (and too right!). Don't think he would have said this unless he thought it likely to happen - unless he does not agree with the head coach. I suspect though we'll not see too many changes until we've lost another game or two and the play-offs are mathematically gone.

At least someone is telling it how it is!
It comes across to me that isn't happy with our great leader.

tbh it came across to me that he does not entirely agree with what Macca has been reported as saying, at all. And the club sanctioned it. So make of that what you will, I guess?

Unfortunately we can ill afford a high earer to be sat in the stands


TBH Morro is one of the better looking players, his ears are in the perfect spot. Now Deacon, his ears are all over the place, & he should be sat in the stands permanently.

His house has been on the market for 2 months now although my source tells me that he has not been told one way or the other about a new contract yet.

What, after his big season this season, and his big season last season aswell?

Surley we can't be considering another contract for a very injury prone player who has given us less than half a season in each of his past 2 seasons.

Non of his injuries have been due to bits of him wearing out (knees and so on). They have all been caused by him showing the bravery and commitment that have been missing from some of his uninjured team mates.

I think he has just had two years of bad luck.

It's got nothing to do with with how he gets the injuries. More to the fact he gets injured, regularly.

Lots of injuries = Prone to injury = Injury Prone.
