The Hard Yards

[nsno-chris]

The gaffer loves telling us about the hard yards but what actually are the hard yards; how is this invisible metric measured??

Is it just running around a lot? Do the good people of GoT prefer a dog who puts in the hard yards like Donkoure, over someone that gets you on the edge of your seat with a bit technical ability

Have the fans reduced the standards of this club “to runs around a lot” has the entry point to this once proud club

The attendance numbers. That's hard yards put in.

Just because you are talented doesn’t mean you don’t have to put any effort in.

Right now Hard yards keeps us in the Premium League, Flair gets us relegated.

We aren’t going to see Danjuma mate. He’s on the grass.

Yep. Flair with no structure or strong work ethic. Send him him back

First you need to start running on the grass, then you get the hard yards.

It's the Dychean way.

A lot of people love Doucoure but hate Onana, because Doucoure runs around a lot

But in reality Doucoure wins less than half is ground duels of Onana, doesn’t make as many interceptions or tackles

You see them mainly at the back of terraced houses, at least round Liverpool anyway. Quite oldish, somewhat run down, usually concrete and normally have mop and bucket knocking around, perhaps a little shed.
The more suburban gaffs will have little gardens. Ours is a combination of flags and decking, she calls it "The Terrazza" but she's a crank tbh.

The “hard yards” are the mental torments of being torn between celebrating a win for Everton in case it diminishes your arguments to strangers on the internet

See Danjuma, Arnaut

That's why he doesn't get a game.
