This really annoys me why when players fall out with the Manager

Managers v Players Empty Re: Managers v Players

I agree that players should always give their all for their county/club regardless of their opinions of the manager.
I have had managers at club level (one in particular who I absolutely hated) who gave off a bad vibe and were only good for giving out and criticising.
While playing under a manager like this most I still always gave everything I had whilst on the pitch but I never enjoyed it. I went through one season where I hated almost every minute of it. It was like a chore going to training or a match, it felt more like something that I had to do rather than something I wanted to do.
I know that a large proportion of my team mates felt the same.
We all still put in a huge effort but we never really clicked during that particulsr season and most agreed that we weren't up for it for the big games like we had been in other years.
When this is the case I really do feel that the only thing to do is replace the manager.
If I was managing a team and I sensed that I was despised by a large group of oplayers I would imeediately step down or at the very least hold a "clear the air meeting" to see if there was any way of rectifying the situation.

However with large ammounts of money involved, even at club level, it is quite unlikely that most managers would relinquish their extra income without a fight.

Mullins, I can see were your coming from with this topic and there are glaring examples of situations when players threw the toys out of the pram when they put one's self in front of one's manager and team. Two names immedietely spring to mind are Pad bradley and Cj McGourty who when dropped from the starting 15 and quickly threw the hissy fit.

Compare this to 2008 when two Tyrone legends Kevin Hughes and Eoin Mulligan sat most of the year on the bench before both waited patiently to appear for Tyrone in the AI final in 2008 to assist Tyrone in becoming the team of the decade. It all boils down to loyalty at the end of the day some guys are clearly just loyal to oneself instead of the manager or the TEAM.

A wise man once said there is no "I" in team. Together everyone achieves more.
