Team bonding 21:23 - Sep 24 with 2176 viewsITFC_Follower

Anyone thought that maybe as there are so many new players maybe efforts should be made to bond the squad?

- Bowling trips?
- meals out?
-laser quest?
-golf?
-go karting?

might take the pressure off too.

Just brought my team in work to a night out Karting on Friday. It was brilliant fun and everyone loved it.

Not sure they are better footballers from it though.

haha

Point being though a lot of people seem to post on here about tactics and formations etc but these are human beings who do not really know each other and have moved from one part of the country to here and its all new and its not going well.

So surely the first step is to relax and have fun and bond as a team. A good team spirit should help a great deal.

The human element is very important in any team. I think sometimes the championship manager type of fans loose sense of that in their computerised robotic world.

This crossed my mind pre season with all the changes, I certainly would expect something to happen regarding team building outside of the 'job' and we had the international break. However, perhaps it has not, that would be very worrying as building a good team spirit and camaraderie is pretty critical.

Perhaps they should go and work in an office, factory, farm or on a building site for a week to remind them what a privileged life they lead compared to the supporters that cough up their hard earned cash to watch them.

That's the absolute minimum that should be done when trying to bed in new employees. Although judging by Hursts start, it wouldn't surprise me if nothing had been done.

They should all go for a training session with the paras at Colchester.

He did take them to Portugal. Problem is he then went and signed an entire new first team squad after they got back.

Woodward done that with the WC winning team in 03, he wanted to know who were team players and who weren't, quite interesting as players who had played previously and were pencilled in were then exiled from the team and the WC from what the Marines had said.

Woodward remembers a senior Marine trainer telling him: “Ok, if you want to hear it, there are men in your squad who we wouldn’t go into battle with. It’s not about their skills, it’s about their attitude and effect on the team.

“In high-pressure combat situations just one negative trait can destroy a whole team. One wrong team player can sap the energy from the whole group.”

Unfortunately for us right now, it sounds like the manager is the one!

I would have thought they would have done this anyway, to be honest.

Guess it's different for footballers compared to the normal team building in a office environment for example.

If Hurst and Doig started eating with the squad instead of eating in their office/sitting by themselves that also might have a positive affect on the team as well.

Paul Hurst certainly would be an advocate of go karting, would go along with his car crash management so far.

In all seriousness ( that's not that off! ) you'd hope they'd done something or other to bring some team spirit together.
