I always find comfort in the old saying that it is always the darkest before dawn. I86 was certainly the darkest and most humiliating moment for the club that I could remember. Much soul searching and swift changes have occurred since then and the season proper has not stared yet. There seem to be a different attitude around the club and with supporters.
Just a few things I have noticed.
Though it is still preseason there seems to be more competitiveness around the club. Never been so difficult to identify who could be our best 22 at round one.
The new coaching regime seem to have sown the seeds for genuine work ethic and discipline amongst the players.
There seems to be less spin and excuses coming out of the club and less tolerance for them from supporters.
The inadequate leadership group has been banished.
Different attitude amongst many supporters with a significant reduction of the passive acceptance of mediocrity as in the past.
Any other opinions?
