It all depends on the new manager and how he is deployed. With the modern 4-3-3 / 3-4-3 formations, he may have to come in from wide left.

[SWv2]

New Manager is going to inherit quite a striking partnership. :cloud9:

New manager is going to inherit quite a lot to be fair, a decent sprinkling of talent all over and especially in attack.

All the more mystifying the sometimes abject level of performance the current manager has managed to get.

Wenger out!

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...

[World's End Stella]

Oh it's purely based on an intellectual interest, I have no more emotional ties with the man. Slight tug at the heart watching him wave, but only slight.

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.

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'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. :-(

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.

Ooh, that's excellent news. I can't imagine that we'd often come in off 't fell, but just in terms of shopping fro supplies, it's good to know there's something nearer than Keswick.

I'm going to have 4 sheeps. Just as pets. And a cockerel to look after my hens.
