I was embarrassed watching our team last night, but this is a great post and I agree with every word. I'm no fan of Millward, but he's clearly trying to change a few things fans have been whinging about for years (players out on the pop, unfit etc). Sure, things aren't changing yet, but once the winter clearout is complete, we might see some results.
The major problem is clearly the players. It's one person's fault that the man of steel wasn't on the pitch last night, and that person isn't Ian Millward'"
I agree with it too. I don't think anyone can argue that Millward has a philosophy and a level of professionalism that he's trying to instil at the club, albeit with some apparent opposition from some egos in the dressing room.
The approach the club should be taking, to me seems quite simple. They should remind the playing squad that Ian Millward is the coach of this club until the end of 2014 and if they don't like it, they know where the door is.
As mdean highlighted, it's too easy to settle for mediocrity and I think the players may have had an easy ride in achieving that under Matterson. Millward quite obviously wants to improve things at the club and the players need to get on board.
