Same here. Get the bird started early after presents etc. Open the wine and start believing you’re Keith Floyd reincarnate. Then take in all the applause as you serve. Best bit, someone else can do the washing up whilst I bask in an alcoholic stupor in front of Only fools and horses.
Best day...
Bottas is very underrated imo. He’s constantly up there in top 3 and often quicker than Hamilton. Of course though any driver who’s in the same team as Hamilton has a mountain to climb.
Voted for Brighton and Potter obv.. only 4 points between us and them so not much in the squads. They’ve got squad centred around physicality and direct football.. ours is more possession based. Sometimes I wish we would just go with a bit route one, but hey. Yeah Saha would be great addition...
Yeah I avoided mentioning WH only because of their recent form. But I’m sure they’ll play an open game against us as they’ll be wanting top 4/Europe. So yes another good opportunity for a result.
Alright Mr Doom & Gloom.
We’ve got Leeds at home and Wolves, Arsenal away.. we’ll definitely get some points and goals against that lot. Mark my words..none of them will park that bus. Sit back and chill out a bit.
Some people go on like we’ve never been in a bit of a relegation fight before...
Pretty much this. The amount of teams I’ve watched through the years devoid of ideas, not to playing for their manager and getting hammered every game shows me that we’re not anywhere near that level and the squad looks full of confidence at the moment (apart from perhaps Maupay).
Yes results...
Can’t see that Bottas did anything wrong there. Russell tried to find a gap which wasn’t there and his back right went slightly on the grass, hence the high rev just before hitting VB.
I would imagine if Perez was on the right set of tyres he would still be a few tenths slower than Verstappen. Perez’s race pace though has been constantly better than his qualifying performance, so hopefully he should give a good show tomorrow.
The new reduction in downforce has suited the Red Bulls more than the Mercs with the higher rake car. The Alpha Tauri’s look solid as well. Should be good close first race.
So you have a good base fitness. I would go with
Mon easy 6km.
Tues 3km speed session either 3/5x1 loop at 70-80% effort. Stopping or warming down after each loop for 1 or two mins. Or if you’re short of time split the loop up into segments say 3, then go for 60/70/80% efforts with 40sec warm...
There’s plenty of science to back this up, I don’t have anything with me at the mo to show. Running at a slower pace increases your endurance and recovery muscles. Running slower works out your tiny twitch muscles that help with endurance and recovery. Plenty of slow runs at different distances...
