Now I've spent a bit of time in fields, some containing cows. Never have I seen someone attempt to hit one on the derriere with a stringed instrument !

I don't know about you two, but I've spent a lot of time hanging out near the front of those big farm buildings waiting for some kind of acoustic plucker to turn up to test something else out, but they never do either ..

The manager is making a tactical substitution. OK so if a player gets hurt its not tactical to replace him with someone who can actually move?

"Not at the races"

What does that even mean ??
It doesn't make sense .. they're playing - albeit poorly - so they ARE at the event.

May as well not be there playing that bad.
