To me, and like I have told our players, a true professional performs consistently every game even if it’s an exhibition match." I was glad to see him admit openly admit this. Very honest. This was a chance to sell the club to some fairly skeptical people (we were sitting among some of these people). Some of the players were clearly committed but others were openly indifferent. You cannot lose to an amateur team when the general public is watching. There is no way to put a shine on it. “I was definitely not happy with our team’s performance and professionalism.
