As we are half way (bit more even i think) through this challenge I would like to share my half time resumee with you, or feel in the need of sharing. Most might not like it though, but some might have the same feeling.
And it is NOT about our performance, I am not the best player myself and I would never critisize any other one, for not reaching points, or playing different than i would do. So this is a not to discuss point from my view.
What is a shame from my view is us as a team. As basically I not have the feeling we are one, and i find this a real pity.
This is not the first team challenge I do, and normally I really do enjoy them quite a lot, and like them a lot.
I have to say my joy of doing this becomes less with every Sunday.
I have to admit though, that I probably am very spoiled with the other teams I was in.
One point I really can not understand is the number of Players. Ok we are not doing fine. And yes it can happen and is not expected that everyone play every game. Like I myself did not play Easter Sunday, well this is a family holiday.
But from my view, when I sign in for a team challenge I first look if it is on days where I can play most of it. And I really not even with trying hard can"t see the point of Players signing up and than just appear once or twice, because they not have time, or even worse because it not starts successful. Well things won"t go better if everyone thinks like this. This of course not goes to them who are there every Sunday.
Another point which i hmmm find we have a bit of lack, and I do include me there, is the way of team support, compared with other teams, we are really bit poorly there. And this is something I am not used to from the other team things I am in. I guess I am on the lucky sides that I have friends who play in other teams and than cheer me when they are around to support their team members. Or even players I do not know, so thanks to Swiss Toni from Wales who cheered for Europe yesterday. And the thing is that this is catching. I was not a good supporter for my team as well when I was out. And I apologise for this. But most times I work on Sundays, and most times I have a hard go and not falling asleep in the tourney, so once i am out i wobble off to my bed. I shall try to make this better in future.
To be honest my half time bilance is that should it be next year with the same structure, so ppl have to join teams depending on where they are born or live, than my motivation to play for Europe again is zero at the moment, and I can only hope as I move to England later this year that the english team of where I live than will let me play for them.
Sorry for some hard words, and I apologise for my English.
