Enough criticism (and I am guilty) lets move on!
Just picked this up from Sky's cycle team Dave Brailsford after basically losing the Tour de France It can easily said about us and the past few weeks.
"Sports about winning and losing.
You can't win all of the time.
When things don't go your way, that's the test of your character and what people are about!
As for our team, it's not gone our way this time but it is the acid test and it how we respond and what we can learn from this.
Winning and losing you can still show character and be professional and disciplined and fight, that is what we will be doing!"

So....lets go again!
Come on you Blues
FASTER....FITTER....STRONGER

We have to hope that Cook believes that. Judging by his attributed comments in the Barely Mow, he cant say he didn't know this was going to happen. After his interview on Player and his demeanour shown, you have to worry that the players will feel little inspiration. Hopefully he will get his mojo back some time soon.

I bet he didn't trundle that line out three weeks before the start of Le Tour. I also bet he didn't have a significant amount of funding yanked from under him three weeks before the start of the tour.

I just don't think that can be said right now, 10 games in we will have a better idea.
If you do what you always do, you'll get what you always get.

No it isnt, we have brought in players of a calibre who can compete at this level. We didn't do that last time.

One of my favourite sayings. Believe it has Romany origins, for what it's worth.
