Re: Controlling the ball with the sole of the foot

I wonder if our goalkeeping coach will ask them to cut it out. Muric is skilful enough to trap the ball with the inside of his foot in a split second and then pass it. Yeah, then some idiot acting centre back in oceans of space stops, looks round for ages instead of moving the ball forward and pass...

Re: Any Diesel Car Ignition Experts Out There

Given what you say about no response on the start button, I agree with BFC that the fault probably lies in the keyless start button circuit. Still, at least you can get by using the key.

Re: Any Diesel Car Ignition Experts Out There

Possibly because the start button energises the starter before giving the glow pugs time to warm up. My Kia diesel handbook advises to turn the ignition on with the key, then wait 10 seconds for the glow plugs to warm up before trying the starter. This is especially the case in cold weather.
