karl dont give up mate i know its tough going through it and feeling like your not getting anywhere and maybe even getting worse.I know how u feel i went through that too for about 6mths before anything happen great i had a couple of good games but mostly average then one day it came together and i improved somehow. did same on this site too 4mths before any improvment at all so give it a year and if still not happy then by all means give it up for abit ok but give it afair go first pls its wortby littleman 10 months ago
