Carr's are far from the regions best. Still streets ahead of ginsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still streets ahead of ginsters. Just had a look the history of whist pies. Seems they are "double crust", whatever that means I'm not sure, and filled with jelly. I'd imagine therefore they have a lower meat content by design, irrespective of where they're bought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said we were lucky not to lose to you at home but one of very few games I’d say that about Two of our first choice back 5 have one start between them all season and we had seven out for part of November so I’d say you’re assessment is misplaced Well you obviously see much more of them than I do Genie but from just the highlights you seemed to me to have had the rub of the green more often than most but there’s no denying you’ve been superb this season and deserve to be where you are. We can’t make the top two so good luck to you for the second half of the season, other than Saturday of course obviously!! 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderlust Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 It must be a great time to be an Argyle fan at the moment. Some excellent young players/loanees that Evatt would be envious of layered on to an already decent base. Whittaker may have been recalled by Swansea but there is still tons of firepower up top and some good players coming in like the young FB from Norwich. Fully expect Argyle to get promoted this year - and then be faced with the dilemma of signing/replacing the loanees From what I've seen and heard, the football is exciting to watch and there's a good mixture of skill, pace and power - Sam Cosgrove is a proper beast of a striker and probably what we could do with TBH - he was brilliant at Aberdeen and ain't doing bad this year. Maybe a reason to start Santos to handle him? Have to put Argyle down as favourites for this, but it comes back to how we play on the day - we'll certainly have to be at our best. Massive challenge.

I might well try one of those, there are loads of places all over for good pies- Frasers on Rishton Lane do the best meat and potato job around. King Street in Castle Douglas- two butchers next door to each other, with magnificent baked options. Haggis pies, staggis, and bridies. Lovely stuff.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted January 4, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2023 I do a fair pie when I feel like it. My post Christmas creations of turkey, ham and leek; and turkey, pig-in-blanket, and mushroom both went down very well. Even with our family southerners.

green genie Posted January 4, 2023 Author Share Posted January 4, 2023 To distract from pastry chat for a minute we’ve just made 3rd cash signing of window, Callum Wright from Blackpool.

Couple Argo wannabes took their first SI slap up there from grown men should’ve known better To be fair they’re still grieving over 86 takeover.
