Team discipline has got to improve

Guys of late the team discipline is on a down...Firstly let me touch on Keerthi's freak sending off..I definitely agree that the ref went crazy to flash the first yellow card but the second yellow was unnecessary.i understand wad keerthi's stand was but when the ref gives a decision its our duty to respect it regardless whether its right or wrong..no point arguing because the ref isnt going to change his mind for u..At most just a small gesture of unhappiness towards is decision is enough..But not to the extend that the ref gets pissed at our team and things starts going against us..Keerthi did nothing wrong by asking for offside but the arguing with the ref could have been avoided..Lets try harder to keep our cool during games..The ref's behaviour was unacceptable but lets look at ourselves first before we point fingers at others..
Another thing is sometimes i feel that comments on the pitch are very negative and that has got to change..The moment we start throwing negative remarks at each other we start losing focus and the team morale generally deteriorates..So in futre i would like to see more encouragement and also positive remarks..For an instance if someone gives u a bad ball pls try to motivate the person by saying "Dae betta ball da.." or if someone misses a man "Dae come on..Harder abit da"..this kinda comments get the team playing betta..The moments words like lousy and vulgarites come out it really spoils the game..pls dont think i'm pointing fingers at anyone but all of us have been guilty of this at some point so lets put in more effort to eradicate this negativity in our game..Also another issue is playing to the whistle and not giving up when u cant reach a ball..Many a times i feel we get carried away and not playing to the whistle.Also when we cant reach a ball lets not turn our back away or just stand still..Try to push harder and give chase..If u just give it already shows ur lack of hunger for victory..So let us all try to put in some effort to make this changes happen..i hope i never upset anyone and if i did i'm sorry because i really feel this issues have to be sorted out..
