@Alan_Tonge The golden moments in my 40 years "teaching" still stand out. Enjoy the good and learn to balance the disappointments. The good, in the end, far outweighs the inevitable "beyond reasonable control ".
@masaccio60 Just thinking about your plan.
I made your trip OUT Saturday & back Sunday to visit that area. They had car ready and waiting to take me round.
Time was tight!
@masaccio60 Step into their world Tom ...
I recommended to a friend, before his visit to Italy. He was enthusiastic about how helpful it was. In my opinion an outstanding contribution to the Soska front
@Alan_Tonge Really appreciated your analysis for James post match. Taylor's comment about lack of defensive strength and playing football to compensate is a telling one. L1 is physical and in 4 seasons that has been the weakness, good footballing side but ....
@Alan_Tonge Thank for your brutally honest opinions. Unless there is the ability to confront the reality things cannot change. All of our recent L1 seasons have had a patch like this, but "Garry Gone" has removed the heart and soul.
@Alan_Tonge You will be at Wigan? I thought, that given the run, the set up and pattern of play was good. Rub of the green, momentum changes? Corners and free kicks are an issue. The disparity in finance now in L1 is so great and that is the real issue.
@bertoli1966 I took my Slovene friends there in the Summer.
They liked it too. I was so impressed l went back with my grandson, he is hard to please but he liked it too.
@djwheeler07@exetercity1904 Mirrors my own experience, at a much later age, having to leave a job that had been my professional life for 40 years due to sudden illness.
@masaccio60 The magic of what we do can open a doorway into what happened in that place. Something unexpected causes an opening, in my case an eerie feeling, into the past. One of my Slovene friends, while on the Kras with him, said that all the memories still resonate in all the stones.
