Will probably only come under scrutiny if we don’t beat Rotherham. Of course what they do is up to them. I'd be interested in knowing how long they've been given off though, as a lengthy break feels a bit strange to me at this stage of the season, particularly as we've got an extra week away from the intensity compared to our rivals. Though perhaps the additional week will allow us to train when the other teams take a short break (which I think most do during this international break).

RadioactiveWaste Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I think a break is going to do most of them good. Obviously, if they don't win their next match, the issue will be that the international break wasn't a non stop brutal fest of hard running, bollockings and beatings like the first half of full metal jacket.

Boycie Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 When has a warm weather break ever led to a decent run of results. I’ll save you looking and trying to make me look more silly. Never FACT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S75 Ram Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Well you can all feel really smug, weather here in UAE yesterday was cool, cloudy and windy with thunderstorms and tons of rain in evening. Sorry to disappoint though 'cos now at 8.15am it's sunny with clear blue sky and hotting up nicely. ? ⛱️ ? COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expensive yes, tacky???? maybe in parts, but to be honest the oil is not going to last for ever, so they are making the best of what they have. I wonder of all those on here who say "I don't know why people would go out there" have actually been there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still one of the greatest photos I've ever seen from DCFC. Modern players tend to rock into pre-season with their Prada wash bags, chains hanging low, shades and huge headphones. Bucko trots in with an asda carrier bag over his shoulder while still in his painting trousers from the second bedroom he's yet to finish but had all summer!

I wonder of all those on here who say "I don't know why people would go out there" have actually been there? It's a great place to live and work. I spent 6 years in Abu Dhabi, followed by 10 years in Dubai. The long-term expats know where the "tacky" places are and where the expensive places are and enjoy going to both. Its the holiday makers who come for a fortnight's 'fun & sun' who spoil it and get into trouble, such as being drunk in the streets and going into the shopping malls in their swimming costumes, then complain when they are arrested for indecency. It's a foreign country, not the UK and they have different rules. By the way, at the present rate of exploration & estimates oil in the UAE has at least another 200 years supply.

DCFC1388 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 This isnt like Liverpool or last season etc as we havent gone on a warm weather training trip, the players are simply having a break. Maybe the rest after so many games recently will do them good. Was good to see a group go off together with their families though, shows the togetherness in the squad imo. Pretty sure I read they were having a few days off then reporting back for a couple of days, the weekend off then the full week build up for Rotherham as normal. Seems a sensible plan to me. Pretty sure most international breaks players go away as i'm sure other teams players will have now, only benefit for us is that due to our extra break we can come in after the hol and keep things ticking over and then have the international weekend off as well.
