post-match ramble...

guys pardon me as i rant n nag like an old man (which of coz i m not....err ya...)

tink just now even if we had scored a winning goal, many of us would still b xian after that lousy performance

tink there are alot of reasons y we played badly today. some are legitimate eg long day at sch...but many others are not...tink coach and the capts have/will highlight the other stuff and individually we will reflect on our own mistakes too, but i feel theres one issue we should bring up......

...namely, the way we prepared for the match...now we all noe a good warm-up is essential to being ready for a match...this is something we definitely can control, so we shld always be serious and do a gd warm-up rite?but today so many of us were the opposite and im sure it contributed to our poor start. maybe coach not being there was a factor but lets be fair, he has to rush fr work...n we are not some small kids that need to be reminded about things all the time. we must be responsible for this sorta thing...not say cannot talk cock or joke during the warm-up but the general mood, body language, demeanour today really can be improved la...

now honestly, im not worried at all about the long term effects of today, 1 bad performance does not negate the good stuff we have done in recent matches and trainings, so we should keep our heads up. in fact sometimes a poor performance spurs a team to even greater heights. but let's really make a point to not have another match that is, like coach said, totally wasted...

cant wait for the nex match we play where im sure we will all show that today was nothing more than a unfortunate footnote in our journey to success in sunig =)
