RvR Leadership
I find it rather amusing, and also quite frustrating that, notwithstanding every man and his dog pronouncing anathema on individual players and on Albion as a whole for our failures in RvR, we are simply not learning from our mistakes.
This continuity of blind individualism without regard for collective responsibility is done against a back-drop of resentful spitefulness, petty and childish arguments on specific errors in game-play, and disrespect for those people who want to lead, not to increase their own egos, or because they like telling people what to do, but because they believe they have the experience and maturity sufficient to lead Albion to victory.
Instead of people saying “Fair play to you mate; thanks for taking the initiative even though we died” you lot have to stick your ugly two penny-worth in, and berate some of our finest leaders just because you died. So what ? You died ! If you don’t like dying and releasing don’t play.
I’m sure I’ll get flamed for saying this – it seems that every1 gets flamed for even breathing ! – and of course you’re entitled to say and act how you want. That’s not my point. My point is, that Aussie at least took the initiative and had a go. OK, so he wasn’t exactly Russell Crowe, and so he called someone a monkey. So what ? When you lazy lot grow up and respect people who are not motivated by individual greed and the growth of their own fat egos, I, and along with many of my 50th level colleagues, will actually look forward to a shared rotational leadership.
I know this will fall on deaf ears, that because many of the people who are reading this are 15 years old (and not 30 like me) who simply do not have the maturity and leadership experience derived from actually leading people in the real world (no disrespect intended), they will retort in the only way they know how, with invective.
Last word : if you want to win in RvR, let people who have a natural ability to lead with maturity and a track record of proven competence do their job; as long as the rest of us fall in line, we will do much better in RvR.
