Bob Turnip

I remember saving up for my first separates back in the late '90's in my early '20's. All from richer sounds, i bought: Arcam alpha 7 amp, Cambridge Audio CD4 Wharfdale Modus 3 speakers It now looks like: Arcam alpha 7 amp, Cambridge Audio DAB500 Rotel RCD-945AX CD player Rotel RP-5300 DD Turntable (bought drunk from ebay for £13.50 - didn't notice it said for parts only. Turned out it just needed a plug and a new cartridge!) Mordaunt Short MS35Ti speakers

Thanks both!! That’s really great advice. Much appreciated

Anyone been? Mrs Turnip is wanting to go and I'm warming to the idea - looking at a couple of weeks in November - think the rainy season ends in October... I guess firstly if anyone's been, would you recommend going at all?! I note there are no direct flights anymore - change in Madrid looks best option. And if anyone has any tips and recommendations they'd like to share would be most appreciated

Some people have an interest in what ex-players are doing (i don't see any hero worship or fascination as is being claimed). I think that's fine. It's also fine if you don't have any interest. What is odd is that you and others have come on to a thread that is clearly about an ex-player, (even though you have no interest) and got all upset.

Was subbed at half-time - hopefully planned as you say.

Very good

That's fair. Good reply

I didn't know you could do this! Thanks for the tip

It was a question, which can't really be answered by anyone. We were obviously lied to.

Yes well put. I was just trying to move away from Manning being judged based on the exact wording that JL fed us, which some people are doing. Realistically if you take away the anger of NP going the way he did (of which I'm still cross about), and all the lie's, then I think people would be more accepting of Manning needing time to implement. Yeah, incompetence for sure!!

I haven't made an argument, but thanks.

Not sure where I've made any excuses for anyone. Just asked a question. Where did I say we should be OK with the lies? I'm not OK with the lies, which you'd know if you engaged rather than just assumed. Of course we should hold people to account for failing. My point being for all we know JL and Tin's said to LM, don't worry about this season, just keep us up and focus on next season (that's just an example before you lose the plot), therefore LM's remit will be different to what we've been told. I don't think anyone thinks they were being honest about anything, so yes they should be held to account for lying to us.

Sorry, what? Desperate for what? Was just pointing out that whatever discussions were had between them probably wasn't along the lines of what we were told.

Sorry for late reply, but how do you know this was the remit? Were you in the room with them when he was told this during the recruitment process? Just because JL and BT fed us fans a load of tripe, doesn't mean they said the same to LM.
