True but most people are feeling frustrated after the City game so that's the reasoning behind it, I think the weakness is not just with the strikers though, they just aren't getting the ball. It's the same weakness as last season really, when is CH going to address it and how?
I'm agreeing too much with pjs, i'm off to try the 16 year old lagavulin special edition I bought at the weekend.
ah, well that's the magic question fenland! you're right, it is the same weakness but we also couldn't keep the ball last season - that is slowly being addressed (although you'd never have known it last week) but it is a different style of play that some of last seasons players are trying to adapt to. the new players (hooper and rvw) make the kind of runs we all wanted to see last season but unfortunately that wasn't holt's game. now we've signed players who can do it, its up to the midfield to play them in. i'm fairly sure huighton and co aren't telling the players to 'not create good chances!'. its noticeable we've been cutting in a lot. we need the full backs to get forward and overlap if we play inverted wingers and imo we are trying to be a little too clever in and around the box. lets whip some first time crosses (that carrabuh hates so much) into the mixer. there's been too much fannying around with it or taking pot shots that more often than not aren't going to threaten. this stems from frustration i expect.
Well I think he is trying to sort it out, and can begin to see signs that it will come good. It's about getting more than 1 midfielder to link with the lone striker and that is not happening at the moment. I can see that Fer, Howson and Pilks are starting to do it and Redmond to some extent. I think Snodgrass is the weak element in the tactical game plan, he has to learn to pass the ****ing ball first time. The other thing that would help is quicker and better passing from the back, which is why I'd prefer to see bennett play.
This is the distillers edition and it is less peaty and smokey than the normal one and it also sweeter
I must say standard (?) Lagavulin is a little too intense for me, your version sounds more amenable. Still a big fan of Caol Ila and Ardbeg - if I can still locate them anywhere. On a different note, do we think the site may keep freezing up / stalling due to an overload of frenzied activity involving God's own county just lately?
Anyone tried St George's Whiskey from Norfolk, any good?: http://www.englishwhisky.co.uk/ I thinking of getting a bottle for a Christmas present.
I was forced to try it, there is a new whisky shop in Manchester and there are lots of tasters, they have about 40-50 bottles open to taste. By the end I wasn't sure if I was seeing doubles as the shop has employed identical twins (honestly)
I haven't tried it, but I should be back in Norfolk in a few weeks and might have a make a special visit to the distillery- i'll get someone to drive me!
i read in the paper the other day that M&S are going to do it as an own label whiskey, so you should be able to get it nationwide soon
When I used to work for Oddbins I won an incentive - the prize was a 3 day trip round the Seagram owned distilleries and a cooperage Flew Nch -> Aberdeen, met by director of Chivas Brothers blah blah. Went to Glenlivet, Glen Grant, Strathisla and Longmorn. Bloody marvellous. Long haired Aberdeen angus grazing in the fields adjacent to the hotel
Sounds great: Are you sure they were AA cows? Highland cows would be more likely, sorry just got fed up of being told the difference when I lived in Scotland for three years
I have tried the whiskey and it is decent, on a par with Glenfiddich I think. They do a nice tour there......
