I know one player who doesn’t have that attitude and knows you have to give everything to get the rewards you want
I would hope I'm known enough on here to say what I think, regardless of who it annoys or offends. I don't say thing to make people feel good, I'm always honest.
I haven't seen Elliot play much this year at all. I can't comment on his performances or attitude from a first hand POV.
But what I will say is that all I see for him on here and social media is praise. Some of that no doubt is because you're here and people want to make you feel good about your lad. But I don't for a minute think all of it is. There's a few people on here whose opinion I respect and trust, and they said he's playing well, I believe them. I've also seen enough of him at previous teams (London & Sheffield mainly) to form my own opinion of him as a person and a player, and I have always rated him. I don't for a minute think that he has that attitude. Much the same I can say for a couple of other players (Steve Crossley for example I can't see ever taking that way of thinking).
I think the attitude issue is more something from the club itself than the players. The faces in the media that talk like the club is still a huge deal. And yes I'm sure there's a couple of players who still think they're billy big bollox (Chisholm seems to be the popular opinion from those on here).
