They don’t appear to ‘respond’ to an ‘adult manner’ approach, they have a responsibility to perform as in any job to the best of their ability, they should fire themselves up… they’re adults.
It’s bad enough trying to sort out the farce we’re in without sulking players feeling sorry for themselves.

It's coming across as if plenty of players ain't bothered.
But it's a sport we're you still get paid the good part time wage irrespective of the result.

Imagine these cranks trying to make a living out of Darts were you are 100% payed only on performance /results.

They obviously need a reality check.
UTP.

They’re the only contractors who are unsackable.
In the real world, if you don’t put the effort in, or if you’re not committed ….. you go the journey.

Sadly, Snowy, in the modern world this is no longer the case. If an employee is suspected of not pulling their weight they usually get several warnings, then capability procedure and finally they may be dismissed this process takes years. Even then, they can appeal and take their employers to a tribunal. The modern working environment is a skivers pradise. Modern football reflects this except footballers contracts are normally for a set period: in Pools case one year or two year. At the end of the contract, the skiver leaves, unlike in the NHS or other nationalised companies who are saddled with a shower of shirkers.

NHS saddled with shirkers??
Nah they're all Superheroes, how on earth did you miss that memo??
Seriously, the world and certainly the UK is full of people who expect everything for the least possible effort. The NHS is full of selfish greedy bastards who live in a parallel universe, they're more likely to go out on strike than go out on a limb to help people.

I agree with you…but football is done to a much shorter compact schedule and the people who suffer are the fans who pay to basically be entertained.
All you can reasonably ask of any employee is to do what you’re paid to do.

I could have sworn the NHS was staffed by people who have come from overseas, just to do us all favour by looking after us with unstinting care, kindness and specialist medical knowlege. They do not do this so they can bring their extended family to the UK: that is just a far right myth.
