Anyone who knows me will tell you I always look for positives.. Well the one positive today was England beating Ireland at Rugby..
Jam Roly Poly....... Ingredients 50g salted butter, cold and cut into chunks, plus extra for greasing 250g self-raising flour, plus extra for rolling 1 vanilla pod, seeds scraped out 50g shredded suet 150ml milk, plus a drop more if needed 100g/4oz raspberry or plum jam, or a mixture custard, to serve Method STEP 1 Put a deep roasting tin onto the bottom shelf of the oven, and make sure that there’s another shelf directly above it. Pull the roasting tin out on its shelf, fill two-thirds with boiling water from the kettle, then carefully slide it back in. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tear off a large sheet of foil and greaseproof paper (about 30 x 40cm). Sit the greaseproof on top of the foil and butter it. STEP 2 Tip butter, flour and vanilla seeds into a food processor; pulse until the butter has disappeared. Tip into a mixing bowl. Stir through the suet, pour in the milk and work together with a cutlery knife until you get a sticky dough. You may need a drop more milk, depending on your flour. STEP 3 Tip the dough out onto a floured surface, quickly pat together to smooth, then roll out to a square roughly 25 x 25cm. Spread the jam all over, leaving a gap along one edge, then roll up from the opposite edge. Pinch the jam-free edge into the dough where it meets, and pinch the ends roughly, too. Carefully lift onto the greased paper, join-side down (you might find a flat baking sheet helpful for this), loosely bring up the paper and foil around it, then scrunch together along the edges and ends to seal. The roly-poly will puff quite a bit during cooking so don’t wrap it tightly. Lift the parcel directly onto the rack above the tin and cook for 1 hr. STEP 4 Let the pudding sit for 5 mins before unwrapping, then carefully open the foil and paper, and thickly slice to serve.
On the back of we set up to counter attack MK Dons - now "they have beaten Lincoln". Now we are not entitled to anything we are where we are but did you ever expect a Sunderland manager in this club' s proud history to utter those words. Even he must realise what he has said is beyond insulting,
I can’t believe what he is coming out with. It’s as if he thinks survival or being comfortable in mid table is his goal. He should get up and go ..... but he has no get up and go !
Quarter of the season gone and we are sat 8th in the table and already going backwards. All the evidence suggests that Parkinson will not get us promoted. He needs to be sacked before it's too late
So sad isn’t it mate. You and I are cut from the same cloth regarding outlook fir SAFC!! As positive as we can be. Sad that neither of us can find anything positive about this
Just watched parky post match. “Well they’ve only got one forward in the box and we have 3 defenders” This is how Denver Hume feels every time he crosses a ball... but their forward tried and managed to get the ball ****wit!
I suppose the good thing is that we do have a more than decent squad with some promising young players. We just need a manager willing to give them a fair go. It'd be a lot grimmer if the team was ****e. It's just Parky's team that's ****e fortunately.
Absolutely this squad is ok. With some promising youngsters to come in 100% the team selection and tactics are the problem. Starting to get the feeling the players think that as well Parkinson needs to go but with the takeover rumbling on and SD AWOL Is there anyone at the club in a position to sack him
