I think these antics only work because we haven't been able to put the distance between us and the opposition that we should have been able to by now. If were at the level we should and could be at, these antics would not be affecting us. I really believe that this country has the potential and resources to produce quality footballers, footballers that would be phased by these sort of antics.
