when we had the likes of Denny Ingram we couldn't complain because we knew the limitations of players like that, and the fact they weren't on a lot of money. This lot is different, very different from traditional Pools teams of the past who would at least try hard for the shirt and for the fans, even if they weren't good enough, and they and the fans knew they weren't good enough.If they're on the type of money they get at Pools these days, then we should be seeing them showing their quality out there.
Spot on mate, we get paid a lot less than these and if we don't perform at work we get sacked. They have massive salaries yet they're in a profession where passion and commitment aren't a pre-requisite. It's the managers responsibility to have players in the team who are going to try for the club. I've thrown it in for this season now. I've lost all interest in blowing a fair part of my monthly wage on people who don't earn theirs. The main frustration for me has been mentioned right through this thread. On paper the team we have should be right up there, for whatever reason that never gets communicated to us we consistently give in. The PR machine at the club tells us we're still challenging, regardless of our position. We're not, we're fooked unless something drastic happens. I won't return until I can be sure my money is going to something worthwhile. Of course people will jump on this and say we've been much worse before and i've went through thick and thin. But at least we were realising our relative potential in those times. Right now we have no bottle and a manager who criticises the fans.
