People rile against the use of words like passion as being generalities that have no meaning, but throw around ambition as wisdom of the ages.
'Ambition' is often a hiding place, for those with no coherent plan.
I have an ambition to be something. I have to tell you that, because it is in no way obvious from what I am doing. You would never in a million years conclude that from how I go about things.
As we used to say. Don't tell me, show me.
“People” don’t rile against words like passion. “They” argue that passion is necessary, but not sufficient, in a footballing sense (which is also true in many other professional and technical situations). Likewise an ambition has to be realistic, otherwise it is foolhardy.
Both concepts have their strengths and limitations. Be passionate about what you do but try not to get emotional. Make sure your ambitions are realistic otherwise you will be disappointed. I agree with tricky: make sure you have a plan.
There you go. Some wisdom for the ages….

What's the plan to get down to single figures?

Nuno has trimmed his beard a bit.
Just got around to reading that. I don't want to have anything to do with a club that operates like that, irrespective of outcomes. Which I already knew anyway.
Marinakis seems more like expectation than ambition.
He has a beard? We are fucked!
First bearded Forest manager?
Thanks.
Cunt.
Well he isn’t as facially hirsute as he was, so that’s some hope.
Surely you mean a dwad and a dosser?
Thank fuck for my illiteracy!
Tell me you don't play golf without telling me you don't play golf.
People don’t play golf with sticks, Ingo
They use bats.
