The body language v Norwich looked more like a team resigned to re!egation than one that was doing everything they could to earn the respect of their quality opponents. The manager and coaches have a big role to play in this department. Yesterday they failed as the side took to the field expecting to lose and showing it. We've had the best ever manager, he would never had tolerated such attitude and lack of guts.
I take it you were not watching in 75 then?
We were dire, we were awful, we lacked ideas, our body language was all wrong, & instead of ranting on twitter the way back then was for a letter to be sent to the football post most weeks telling us how bad we were & talking about the need for change.
Motivating people that don't want to be here & who we don't want here long term, is a very difficult trick to pull off.
We had a decent centre half back in '75 too! A certain Sammy Chapman :shy:
