Agree Weāre off this weekend up to Lochinver, Sutherland for four nights in a pod-thing. Magical part of the country. The North Coast 500 has made it a lot busier which is hard on the infrastructure but also brings in a lot of local coin. Good thread.
Oh, and if that was you Ted on recent podcast thing - cheers for doing that, I enjoyed it.
Thanks Norf. Positive human story here to be celebrated. Regarding Madsen as a player - was never as bad as some feared, or as good as some hoped (but thatās what makes this place tick).
My brother-in-law got a cava-poo in covid times. Similar I think? Lovely dog, a real family character - great with kids. Unfortunately they were unlucky as health problems is costing them a bomb - increasing insurance, annual injections, monthly grooming fees etc. With the family now working less from home, separation anxiety seems a thing with it too (on both sides). My retired father-in-law often driving 40 mins to spend time with it during the day. Itās a fab dog - full of beans and loved to bits. They wouldnāt get another one though.
On the other hand. We are thankful to be allowed to live in a house with a couple of mildly tolerant but utterly nonchalant cats. š
Given that players can be booked for retaliation, why wasnāt Haaland booked for hauling back the Liverpool defender after he himself had been fouled? After he took his shirt off after the pen that wouldāve been a second yellow and off too. Why isnāt that the correct decision? Maybe missing something butā¦
Agree. But when weāre talking about the game getting lost in a VAR hole, letās not confuse it with other tech introductions. Goal line technology is not VAR and so the Lampard ghost goal example doesnāt make sense to me. Henry v ROI is perhaps a better historical example?
I like goal line tech - very simple b/w use of tech. Letās keep the stuff that adds value. VAR is dog shit.
Speeding fines, points, potholes and pedestrian crossings have slowed me down too. Funny thing is, since Iāve adapted my driving I donāt seem to take any longer getting places.
Related to this was shifting from moaning about traffic, to accepting that I am the traffic - thatās helped my mindset too.
Lifeās hard enough without having roads boil my piss.
Smyth was really good at the ugly side of the game generally and last night too. Getting his body between player and ball. He wins a lot of marginal free kicks. Massively important when managing a 0-1 lead with time running down. I bet heās hard work playing against.
