Thats exactly what he did at Swindon though Stan......thats what got him this job............its sad to say but i just dont think many modern day players have the attitude to embrace the character of a man like Dicanio.........i use the word sad because what we,re really saying is many players today wouldnt embrace the likes of Clough/Shankly etc in todays game.......can you imagine back chatting and copping an attitude witha manager like Clough !!......................I dont think the problem is Dicanio as a man i think the problem is todays footballers as men.

Totally agree about Mourinho.....he,s the perfect example of what ive said for a while now about managers becoming too big in the game......he,s a media whore im sure some of the decisions he makes are just to promote himself.

Oh it is where i said......aint just directors who park there ......did you see Gold & Sullivans rollers.... golds is silver... " d gold " plate Sullivans is red......i just cant place them steps....yep the boxes are nice you got all the lounges behind them its chalk and cheese one side of the ground to the other.......if im honest i still prefer the spit and sawdust of the East Stand its still got that raw scrappy feel about it..... A question like that you just got to nod mate they figure it out themself in the end.....didnt we .....dont stop us singing our hearts out for them thou

Blimey you must of got there early to get that picture Wilf.....im trying to work out where that is....its not the main car park outside the west stand is it ? i dont remember there being steps there...............no big deal like its just bugging me Not a bad bit of the ground that you would of been directly opposite me im about 30 yards to the right of the telly cameras.......theres not any part of the ground i havent been in at some point i,ll be sorry to leave it i love the place......glad your youngster had a good day i love seeing a lads face light up when they first get into the gr

Its laughable that some people would think a world champion fighter would be scared to fight a man and so pull out of a fight 1 week out......people make themself look stupid when they go on like that........this isnt the first time a fight has fallen through late on and it wont be the last.......if Haye had pulled a stroke why didnt he do it weeks ago,he was in fantastic condition it will be a bad time for him now as it will for Fury its a horrible feeling when your this close to a fight...... And who said he didnt have headgear on ?.......headgear will stop a cut from a head clash but it wo
-
I think the approach he takes can only get success dependant on the type of characters he has to work with........some players/sportsmen are intimidated by a trainer with a strong stance and go into their shell.......others are inspired by it and come to the front........he is a very charismatic man but that doesnt always go in your favour as some players will rebel where others will want to perform for him.......it split the dressing room at Swindon where half the squad thought he was the bees knees where the other half couldnt stand him........its a sad state of affairs that top footballers

If your at the Trevor Brooking stand side of the halfway line your above the old chicken run.......you,ll have the away support to your right which aint always nice for youngsters.....but its only Everton theres no hostility with them big girls ..................Its an old old stand though mate you still got the big support columns to dodge your head around if your unlucky.......hopefully you get a good view and a lets hope for another lifelong Hammer .
-
Couldnt agree more mate....i must admit i cant remember a lot of what your saying but i did see a program about it a few years ago and it got me thinking so i asked around and from what people said he was talking of doing the parents long before it actually happened......he had what they call typical " village mentality ".......ie,he forgot theres a big world out there and thought he could easily get away with it within the village..........guess we,ll never know for sure eh.

Pressing a dumbell is a completely different feel to a barbell.......its near impossible to press a decent size dumbell with good form palms out...........simply turning the palms in will take away from the anterior delt as much as palms out..... Ive always found a good bar for pressing is a trap bar.......you will still be able to hold it palms in and you can take it a lot lower than a straight bar without having to worry about front or behind the head.

Shes a few years younger than me......after a serious gym session the last thing on my mind is a session upstairs...........................as the new resident THL sex therapist my advice is get her the best sex toys available and just tell her how much you like to watch her sort herself out...............................with Match of the Day on in the background
-
Ol blindin !......Good for you Wilf....of all the days.....im not going today im at the boxing at the Copperbox tonight....normally id have done them both in the same day but one of the the local lads is due to fight at 5.15 so would of been a bit of a squeeze.................wherebouts in the ground are you mate ?......could probably of got yous into a few of the lounges if your in the West Stand................have a crackin time anyway lets hope the youngster dont find it too traumatic i dont fancy our chances today.

I certainly havent seen it ALL Lanesra......but i do know theres a lot of scientific evidence regarding the length of the gun etc etc..........i also know ( only because its fairly near where i now live ).......that he was as guilty as guilty can be according to people who knew him/family etc ......interesting case nonetheless.
-
Once you get to my/our age Tomo there really is no reason to be doing too many core lifts.......your metabolism changes with age so the benefits of low rep heavy weight lifting is not what it used to be........if you havent packed on some size by a certain age you certainly wont pack it on like you could in your 20,s.......................its a bit like sex.......you dont go all out hell for leather any more.......just slow it down with more purpose to achieve the same results Once you have size its more about hitting a muscle from certain angles......biceps for example.....i,ll still do 4

I resisted earlier in the thread when the fella said " im too knackered once ive done my hod carrying for the day ".....................well think how much easier it would be if you was actually strong/fit enough to do it in the first place .............Training is good for you !.......Theres a reason im still doing daft things like racing up and down mountains for a bet into my 50,s......................and i put it all down to a lifetime of fitness

Not this current gym mate. Basically it's an old school gym I go too now. I gave up the council run one about 9 months ago. Although it had all the new mod cons it didn't have very heavy weights. Now I pay half the price but the equipment is dated....things like Alan keys to select your weights sort of gym.... LolBut in 6 months at this gym I got so much stronger than a year at the old one. I see what your saying about numbers, but it kind of pissed me off gradually getting stronger and stronger and then last few weeks I feel I have went back the way. Basically I tried to cut weight to look m
-
Theres no right or wrong way its just personal preference................you will always lift more weight on a Smiths as the balancing is done for you......a 170kg bench press on a Smiths is a 150kg lift free weight................the Smiths Machines of years ago or the real cheapo Argos type ones are bad for you as they force you to lift in a certain position.................but todays commercial grade ones are fantastic we paid 18 grand for one last year its the most futuristic bit of kit ive ever seen...................but its still not going to do the hard work for you

Great thread....this sort of shit fascinates me i admire you lads dedication

Raw mate.I`ve been taking my weight training a bit more serious since finishing playing rugby but have never competed.I agree that max lifts aren`t a good thing too often and will bring on the overtraining syndrome quicker.I tend to do a lot of cardio/walking the dogs etc which will also affect my performance in the gym.Anyway.....it`s all good fun. Not so much for overtraining.......just injuries plain and simple.......and what does a 1 rep max lift actually give you ? apart from showing off with numbers ................over the years ive found once you can do away with your ego being i

I gave it away to someone it looks like a pile of rubble now ......Im getting the tank back as i like it it,s got a nice modern look to it gonna have a go at these Cichlids i think.

Some of the biorb plants are fairly realistic....a lot of people say some of the silk plants also.....................choose the right plants though and you might as well just get real ones.cheers Gnash, I'll have a look at those biorb things.. This is a tank i had years ago Malt not a real plant in there.....and fake plants have come on a lot since then as well.......i think as long as you dont overdo it you can keep it fairly realistic.
-
Has your gym not got a Smiths Machine Lab ?..............Todays machines are smooth as anything and perfect for squatting as it does the balancing for you....................unless your competing in strongman dont get too wrapped up in numbers its more about how you lift not how much you lift
