Honest_Man#1 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Pish, it's much more enjoyable when you win so better off looking at what went wrong, also even if people aren't professional at things they still want to improve themselves. Wouldn't go overboard with being angry or let it bother you for too long either though, it's just a game. You say pish, then agree with my post. Obviously you'd prefer to win, but anyone playing Sunday League and demanding to analyse performances after games to work out what went wrong (in a double figures pumping it would be a lot of things, on particular that the other team are just better) is wasting their time massively. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Unless you play professional football then who cares? You absolutely should just move on and forget it. The goals conceded weren't one offs. They were all pretty preventable believe it or not. A lot of the guys in the team seriously don't understand what marking is. They think standing beside someone until the ball is crossed is all it takes The amount of goals we lose due this is unbelievable and unfortunately for us we came up against a side that punished us completely for it this week. I know what you are saying, but I don't agree. Sunday league is Sunday league and obviously it's nothing serious, but getting gubbed in that manner was completely embarrassing at any level and something I don't want to experience again. So trying to explain to boys how to mark a man shouldn't be taking it too far IMO. Fwiw I'm far calmer now about it. A combination of that and Boro's shambolic performance really made me a foaming mouthed mess last night 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Sounds like something to be worked on at training rather than a group chat IMO It wasn't getting discussed on the group chat, I was just pointing out on the group chat that we shouldn't just be "forgetting about it" we should be working on it so it doesn't happen again. Either way it won't happen and we'll get cuffed again in the same manner. Useless c***s 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 You would think you would look after your hands a bit better if you were a keeper. Indeed. When that happened I asked the nurse if I would be able to play football that week. She said she wouldn't advise it but if I padded it well it should be ok. When I told her I played in goal I thought she was going to call the mental health unit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smpar Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Watched my nephew playing football this morning. His team got bodied 17-0 (but they don't count scores), but his team were told "they played well, they had some good touches and they were unlucky". The coaching system in this country is completely f*cked. I mean, imagine as a coach watching your team being bodied but because of the way you were taught to coach you can't get torn into them. Absolute joke. Depends what age you're talking here. U17's and upwards, aye, scream in their faces and tell them they're playing shite football and it needs to change. If you're talking younger years (if the scorelines are 17-0 then I'd assume young children) then I'd completely disagree that the "coaching system is fucked" because they're not tearing them a new one for getting beat. If weans were getting fucking roasted for getting beat at football then you'd fine that the majority would pack it in immediately. It's a far better approach to let them move and forget such drubbings, whilst working on the mistakes in a less than aggressive manner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 As a keeper, I find playing in a terrible team that gets gubbed much better than playing in a good side. No-one remembers one dreadful mistake if it finishes 9-0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a far better approach to let them move and forget such drubbings, whilst working on the mistakes in a less than aggressive manner. Pretty much my thoughts exactly, what's to be gained by an adult tearing strips off some young kids till they are greetin and pack it in, kids should be taught to play football the correct way, if all the focus is on results and score lines then, if it's anything like when I was young you will punt it to the biggest/fastest guy on the pitch and learn nothing about playing football. Genuinely never though I'd be one of those saying it's not about winning but until about U16s I think it's more important to learn how to play football and try to pass it, control it and the basics of playing the game and enjoying it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
