Over the 40 odd some years that I have supported NCFC, we have had teams/squads ranging in ability from pretty damn good to pretty shyte. However, the one thing that we have always had is "passion". Even the most inept of our squads fought and died for the City shirt and it's that passion that kept us in the 1st division (pre prem' league days) and from being relegated down to what was the old div 2 at times. It just seems to me that we have none now. Forget the ranting and raving that "Hughes/Jarret/Brenna et al@ are shyte. They arent, they may be nothing special but all have proved themselves more than capable of performing at this level. Furthermore, we DO have some outstanding players in Green, Hucks, Safri, McKenzie. With this squad (AND IT IS BETTER THAN THE ONE THAT WON US PROMOTION) we should be right at the top of this division. It's the passion thats missing.
