chris_glasgow 2 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Yes, but he is so dignified in defeat. A good loser is a good loser. No? There's no room for good losers in sport.

If our manager occasionally looked absolutely furious about dropping silly points, I'd be comforted. It's the same post-match script every time though.

Why play if you don't mind losing? A mindset I've never subscribed to You dont have to throw the dummy oot just to prove you are a bad loser - I am sure WS and the team are hurting at results and getting a draw, and as 'bad losers' will do everything they can to stop losing points - but they don't have to come out and throw a temper tantrum to prove it. There is nothing wrong with a bit of dignity in a press interview even though you are guttted! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's when Ally, Walter and Kenny are staring blankly at the pitch as we're getting outplayed off pish like St Mirren that gets me most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
