I've come to the conclusion that Ardley and the senior players he shares his authority with - Doyle, O'Brien - are wrecking the team spirit we need...
Those 2 have the bad combination of shouting off at other players while not being very good themselves -
In your work, how would you feel about being bawled out for a mistake by someone who makes loads himself but is close to the boss and ALWAYS gets picked? I'd like to see the likes of Enzio calling out Doyle for every misplaced pass....
Saturday was typical, they hit back and when we need a response from the engine room of central midfield (authority on the ball more than running around kicking people) it's never there when we need it. Nor from the manager in general, a few pre-determined substitutes but nothing by way of inspiration.
We're just not a side with a lot of spirit or togetherness when things start going wrong.
