Impossible.

Good to see Paolo upping the ante from the usual measly 110% effort that so many modern footballers seem to get away with!

I wonder what the highest percentage a footballer could potentially play to?  If they can play at 200% tomorrow then why do they only put in 110% most weeks?

Di Canio Out!

[Bob's Orange]

Awful cliche. Just tell them to put in maximum effort, not a fake, impossible number!

Silly Paolo!

We'll be giving 90% more effort than them. We'll crust the losers with our superior effort.

Oh wait, what if they give 210%, best make our effort infinity plus 1.

Don't be silly, Batch.  These are League 2 players we're talking about.  If any of them even attempted to give (infinity + 1) %, they would combust before even leaving the tunnel.

Sadly, I think 110% is about the limit of our squad's effort capability.  200% is wholly unrealistic, and Paolo should know better.

Good point Ardiles, and an extra point for using parenthesis to disambiguate infinity + 1 and the %. Are you an accountant?

They could have a 200% increase in commitment, though.

In fact he is, but not a chartered one, which is important. In other news, I'm in the Paddington wetherspoons, on my own, which is a lot less fun than last time I was here, pre Wembley.
