ManU early season crucial match with an additional sting in the tail !
As you know, this Sunday is the first big match for Manu against the big four. The opponent is Chelsea. At any time of the season, this would have the billing of a clash of the titan game. However with the latest development at Chelsea, the mutual departure (hmmm.. or sacking) of the special one <>, it makes this match even more high profile. To be honest, the timing of the departure, is a bit of the shock. You do not sack any manager so early in the season and especially not one with the track record of Jose. Guess there could be other reasons behind the season other than a less than satisfactory start to the season.
The latest development is that Grant together with Steve Clarke will manage Chelsea. This is actually quite a surprising development. I would have expected Roman to have got a more high profile/ established manager as the team manager since the team has quite a number of strong character. Furthermore if you are getting rid of such a well-respected manager, the replacement must be at least as capable as the previous one so that the players also have faith in the new manager decision.
This change of manager could turn out to be a double edge sword for Manu. There is one school of thought that the first match under a new regime, the team will play very well as they want to impress the new boss. This will make the Manu game even tougher than usual.
To be honest, Manu has also not been playing that well and they have been grinding out result ( somthing like Chelsea previously). Hecne this game could turn out to be crucial to Manu season, a good win against Chelsea will build up the belief and confidence in the team which will carry Manu through the season.
A bad performance and people will start to question Fergi as they will be playing an under-strength Chelsea without Lampard and Drogba.
This should be a tense game and I believe that a single goal will settle the game.
Hope it will be a win for Manu :)

Visit to Thai Village
The following review is about Thai Village which is quite similar in concept as Rama Thai which was an earlier posting. It specialise in Shark Fin and Abalone.
They have a few outlet. This particular outlet is located near the Goodwood park Hotel.
Shark fin with the typical garnish already added.

The below picture is the Prawns cooked with Tang Hoon. For this dish, it was generally disappointing. I felt the dish was much better prepared over at Rama Thai. The Tang Hoon lack the necessary distinctive taste. Felt a bit disappointed.
The below is chicken dish. Forgot what it was but this dish was good as my mom like this dish. The chicken was very tender and it was tasty.
The last dish was the tofu coated with bread crumb and deep fried. Very filling dish as one block of tofu is very big and filling. I only liked the exterior, the interior was actually normal tofu. It would have been better if the size of the item was more bite size in nature.
In general, I only found the Shark Fin which they are famous for to be excellent. For the majority of the dishes, there was nothing much outstanding. Maybe come here for the soup only . Hmm...

The below is the picture taken outside the restaurant.
My family went there for lunch a few weeks back. We had ordered a few items to try out. The below are the pictures that was taken during the meal. We had ordered their shark fin to try out. The following pictures are for the shark fin in claypot.

With regard to the amount of shark fin given, I find that it is about the same. Hence in terms of quality the Thai Village slightly edge ahead of Rama Thai.
The next item is the Sea Cucumber cooked with Abalone Mushroom. I wonder why it is called abalone mushroom, guess must be due to its size. Anyway this dish was ok, nothing really outstanding I feel that gives it the extra edge over other places.
