DOLMANDAN Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Just been debating about the desire and passion shown by lower league teams who have overcome teams who on paper are more gifted/talented players and so worth millions of pounds more. Personaly i think Passion and effort works in cup games but not over a season when the team needs a quality and skill to succeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pride of the west Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 To the original post, passion and effort does work over a season if the carrott on the stick is there. Just look at our first season in the championship. Thats what we were built on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Passion and effort might win you the odd game against superior opposition but it doesn't last throughout the league season. It would no surprise if Oldham, MK Dons and Luton Town lose their next league games. There is always a low after a high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted January 28, 2013 Admin Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Which is why Gary Johnson said he kept picking Bas Savage, technically he was not that great but he would run all day, and run through walls for the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aizoon Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Which is why Gary Johnson said he kept picking Bas Savage, technically he was not that great but he would run all day, and run through walls for the team Yes, but rebuiding the dressing room after every game was proving a trifle expensive...

Noble didn't run around enough for Johnson who sacrificed Noble's undoubted talent because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
