There's a fascinating case study here for some sports psychologist (or just psychologist) with too much time on their hands.
'Explain to us, if you will Mr Psycho-chap, how a clearly very intelligent man with a track record of building wonderful teams and winning trophies, could oversee such a decline and, more specifically, how such a decline could occur because the same mistakes were made over and over again.'
I think the Psycho-chap would end up with a conclusion which references too much power, not enough accountability and how these things might affect the human mind no matter how intelligent the manager etc etc
yes, yes, but apparently, Wenger is a very nice bloke.
Sounds like he spent too much time philosophising with the players and/or making them 'better people'.
Which, don't get me wrong, is nice and all that but isn't his job to actually manage a football team?
Anyway, is Boro Primorac fúcking off at the end of the season too? I assume his deals were linked to Arsene's so he's probably got a year left...
I can only expect that nobody at the club had to answer to anybody.
From Wenger (until just recently) or the players.
I am annoyed Iwobi scored as it may fool someone in keeping him.
Steve Bould has the appearance of the village idiot. At least you used to see Pat Rice getting a bit animated occasionally.
I was practising for retirement, so very much enjoyed fish and chips at the Old Keswickian on a Tuesday, when they do a pensioner's special of haddock, chips, bread and butter and tea at £6.25. Bargain.
Otherwise I cooked at home, in our little housey halfway up our fell, looking out at the sheeps and birds. :sigh:
The Drucken Duck has gone mental, I'm told. They lost a bit of quality and lost business, which they've tried to make up for with some rdiculous price increases. It doesn't sound good.
Well we went and saw this place...

Prices look the same - £38 for three courses may scare off some locals but it's good value for that level of quality.
The menu isn't dog walker friendly, which I expect is his point. Still loads of locals in there and their real ale is quite wonderful.
I am now looking forward to it again. :thumbup:
I'm guessing ther bars are to keep the drooling locals out :-(
It's about an hour's drive to Keswick. Otherwise the nearest town is Cockermouth. Is Cockermouth really so dreadful? Imagine driving an hour home from Booths to find that you'd forgotten to pick up the coffee beans. :-(
:nod: When walking, my rucksack contains a thermos of tea, a packet of Eccles cakes and some sandwiches. I also have a plastic map pocket. And gaiters.
If I bought that house I could use the two top floor en suite rooms to run a little b&B business. £100 a night per room, 200 nights a year? ********FREE MONEY************
No. Cockermouth isn't dreadful at all. It has a big Sainsbury's and an Aldi. There are a couple of nice pubs (The Bitter End is my favourite), some lovely Bric-A-Brac/antique shops that it's nice to spend a rainy afternoon in, a lovely old hardware shop, a decent butcher and some other bits and bobs. It also has a Greggs.
For obvious reasons, I haven't been there for about six or seven years, though. It may have changed. Although in fact I've heard it's actually nicer after the refurbishments for the flooding.
The property looks charming
So much so that I can find nothing to nitpick
I have the same bath taps and shower hose
:-)
Where will you stay? If you're not taking a house I heartily recommend this option.

My dear chap, you have spent all the years I've known you insulating yourself from unwelcome company. Such is your desire to continue this process that you're going so far as to live on a fvcking hillside in one of the remotest corners of the country. And now you're suggesting you could be happy inviting paying randoms into this haven you are creating for yourself?
You'll have to forgive me if I tell you I'm dubious.
They might not be so pleased to come out at 4 in the morning when the Ewes go into labour
Suggest you have a pair of marigolds at hand
And an oil lamp
Passing Welshmen staying at C's makeshift B&B perhaps
