After seeing midfielder Ryan Williams earn his side a place in the second round with a stunning 84th-minute free-kick Bentley found it hard to hold back his praise.
He said: "It was a fantastic performance and I'm proud of all the lads.
"We have a small squad with a load of injuries at the moment and every single one of my players was a hero.
"I always try and stay level headed but it's probably the best I've ever felt as a boss and I am delighted for the team and the fans who helped make this such a great atmosphere.''
Talking about Williams's winner Bentley said: "We all know what Ryan is capable of and we see it every day in training.
"He went close with a couple of free-kicks earlier but he hit the mark just when it mattered with a goal of pure quality. He will take the headlines understandably but it was almost the perfect team performance.''
New Wolves boss Kenny Jackett said he was disappointed to bow out of the competition at the first stage.
He said: "It is disappointing for Wolves to lose to Morecambe I have to admit but it was always going to be tough for us after six injuries on Saturday.
``I thought we defended well overall and looked threatening. We hit the woodwork three times but were hit by a superb free-kick and that is what happens sometimes, but we do need to make sure we take our chances when they come along.
"There was some promise there and it is a transitional period for us but I think the injuries caught up with us.''
Williams produced the telling moment of quality as he curled a superb effort over the Wolves wall to beat goalkeeper Carl Ikeme to his right-hand side six minutes from time.
Morecambe shaded the first half with the best chances. Veteran midfielder Stewart Drummond forced Ikeme into an excellent low save after just 25 seconds and the same player headed a Padraig Amond cross just wide.
The home side continued to look threatening with Williams testing the Wolves keeper with the first of a series of free-kicks.
Wolves looked sharp going forward and almost took the lead after 44 minutes when Matt Doherty worked an opening down the right and produced a shot from an acute angle that beat Barry Roche but hit the foot of the post.
The second half swung from end to end. Wolves hit the woodwork twice in quick succession with Leigh Griffiths heading against a post and Ismail clipping the crossbar with a left-foot curler.

Santo Domingo is the DR's largest city and its capital, with a population of over two million. As big as the city is, however, only certain areas are a must-see and offer the most entertainment and sightseeing. These are also the most ideal and safe for visitors. You can visit them separately and take your time if you have at least 3-4 days. If not, a great way to see these areas in one day is to hop on the Santo Domingo Hop On and Hop Off tour–it's an excellent value.

The Best Beaches in Punta Cana
August 14, 2015
There are nearly 30 miles of white sand beaches stretching along the east coast of the Dominican Republic–aptly nicknamed the Coconut Coast. It's more than you 'll have time for during a single stay. Here are the stretches worth making it to when you're in the area, whether your hotel is in Bávaro Beach, or south of the Punt Cana International Airport, known as Punta Cana proper.
Taking Your Caribbean Vacation to Fun & Fit Heights
July 20, 2015
Sun, sand and warm water every shade of blue. The Caribbean has all the makings for a beach vacation. But Club Med Punta Cana, located in the Dominican Republic, just upped the ante with a new view of a classic seaside getaway. Instead of enjoying the ocean breeze from the comfort of a beach chair, now guests with a sense of adventure can soar above the sea.
Fun Things to Do in Puerto Plata
July 10, 2015
The adventure capital of the Dominican Republic, the Puerto Plata province offers more than meets the eye. Past the golden stretches and Atlantic blue seas, is a province with a myriad of outdoor adventures. Here are three to get started in discovering the thrill of the DR's northern coast.
Exploring Santo Domingo on the Hop-On Hop-Off Tour
June 19, 2015
When I arrived at the departure desk for the Santo Domingo Hop-on and Hop-off Tour, on a Friday morning at 9am, I anticipated a crowd. The night before, I had already planned my route–which stops I would take advantage of and how long I might be able to stay at each, before catching the next bus. I'll admit, I was a tad anxious about how organized this HOHO tour would be and if I would be left stranded at the end of the day, in the middle of Santo Domingo.
3 Museums Not to Miss in Santo Domingo
April 17, 2015
Between Santo Domingo's Colonial Zone–a ten block, cobblestoned stretch filled with ancient buildings, parks and still carrying the aura of Spanish conquistadores–to the bustling city center, the Dominican capital is home to some of the best museums you'll find in the Caribbean region. Here are three to prioritize if you're lucky enough to make a stop in La Capital.

Culture Shock
By Amy Dalness
Dragons, Sci-Fi and Skills, Oh My!
The New York Times review of Christopher Paolini's dragon-loving Eragon perhaps describes it best: "For all its flaws, is an authentic work of great talent." Paolini, for all his nearly 25 years, is an arguably talented fantasy writer whose skills, we can hope, are refined in his upcoming book, Brisingr. The third installment of the Inheritance Cycle—which was originally billed as a trilogy but is now a four-parter—releases on Saturday, Sept. 20, and two Albuquerque Barnes and Noble locations (600 Menaul NE and 3701-A Ellison NW) are celebrating with dragon-related events. Both gatherings start at 10 a.m.
Gallery Review
Cosmic Maintenance and Executions and Democracy at [AC]2 Gallery, and Metropolis 3 at MOV-iN Gallery
By David Leigh
I've always been fascinated with artist biographies—poring over who did what, when and at what age. Like how Joseph Kosuth wrote Art After Philosophy and After when he was 24 or how Gordon Matta-Clark did his amazing architectural cuts before dying at the age of 35. This historical research matters when you make art. It's barometric; using the lives of the artists you admire as a way to put your own career (or lack thereof) in context. If you're 25 and you read that Picasso painted Les Demoiselles d'Avignon when he was 26, it creates a kind of historical chip on your shoulder and you grumble back into the studio to try to one-up the bastard.

Tommy Lee Drum Solo Video History: 30 Years of Insane Stunts
Nobody in rock history has done more to expand the concept of what a drum solo can look and sound like than Motley Crue's Tommy Lee. Here's video proof.
Nobody in rock history has done more to expand the concept of what a drum solo can look and sound like than Motley Crue's Tommy Lee. Here's video proof.
Country star Justin Moore teams up with Vince Neil in the 'Home Sweet Home' video from the upcoming 'Nashville Outlaws' Motley Crue tribute album.
Nikki Sixx wants his fans to prevent YouTube from enacting a policy that could affect indie labels.
Motley Crue's Vince Neil has been given the green light for an Arena League football franchise in Las Vegas.
The 66-year-old isn't not slowing down before an inevitable retirement. Heck, he might be speeding up.
A surprising story broke this week when it was revealed by Billy Corgan that Motley Crue's Tommy Lee would be playing drums on the Smashing Pumpkins' upcoming full-length 'Monuments to an Elegy.' This means current Pumpkins drummer Mike Byrne won't be featured on the record, but Corgan has just released a statement explaining why Lee was recruited.
Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx has been involved in various wars of words lately, including battles with Godsmack and Sebastian Bach. Now, Sixx has completed a verbal hat trick, firing back at Stryper's Michael Sweet after the Christian rock frontman questioned the validity of Nikki Sixx's autobiography.
John Lennon's unforgettable vocal on the 'Hard Days Night' fits perfectly into the crunchy riff of Motley Crue's 'Girls Girls Girls.'
Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil has joined a group of others to buy the Jacksonville Sharks, and plans to move the Arena Football League team to his hometown of Las Vegas.
Motley Crue are making sure they go out with a bang rather than a whimper. That includes not only the massive 'Final Tour' they're preparing to embark on, but also the finally realized big screen adaptation of their best-selling book, 'The Dirt.' Director Jeff Tremaine, best known for his work on the 'Jackass' films and 'Bad Grandpa,' was recently chosen to oversee the movie and Loudwire spoke to him about bringing 'The Dirt' to the big screen.
A big congratulations to Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx as he kickstarts his married life with his beautiful bride, Courtney Bingham! The pair wed yesterday (March 15) at the Greystone Mansion in Los Angeles.
Talk about a huge lineup, this concert festival is a good enough reason to plan a trip to the Great White North. The ninth annual PNR Amnesia Rockfest will hit its massive festival crowd on June 20 + 21 with acts such as Motley Crue, Megadeth, Alice in Chains, Blink-182, Mastodon + many more.

She looks so cute when she's angry! <3 I love this version of Luna!

So I am a first time mom but I have a friend that has an 11 month old (SDD)Āand 5 month old. She claims that she spanks her 11 months old and has since she was 8 months!! She said she will with this baby also...I don't think I will spank until MUCH older, if really needed (trying to hurt someone else..brother/family etc) What are your thoughts on punishment. I think being separated is enough punishment unless they did something horrible and is older...or taking away things (older)
Also I have seen her spank her child....its TOO MUCH.

A lame addition to the Simcity seriesCompared to Simcity 4 the Simcity Societies let me down a lot. It is not addictive as Simcity 4. The graphics are much more improved (including 3D view of the city) but the game environment looks like a toy city. The so called game's social engine lacks distinguished game play. However the latest free patch brings some game improvements along with some playable missions (which were not present earlier in the game).But still it lacks the key success elements of a city building game like Simcity 4. Otherwise the game is good for some occasional city building and having fun. The game lags if you … (Expand)

Very poorly build gameNO comparison to Simcity 4... completely disastrous... poor navigation... poor graphics.... and extremely poor option...

Great Game !Before playing this game, you need to forget all about earlier SimCity versions coz this one has a completely different Gameplay. The graphics and Gameplay is super. You need to 'Understand', 'Think', 'Plan', and then Play. If you dedicate to this game, I bet you will love playing it..... Enjoy ! ! !

But did they carry the wine home in a plastic bag? That is what the nanny state really wants to know!
What is it going to take to lance the infected anal boil that is the WSLCB? I hate them SO FUCKING MUCH.
"If someone wants to cook with alcohol during a culinary course, you must have written approval from the Board."
This is...I'm just....this can't be for real.
Well, the Director of Marketing for Culinary Communion (Heidi Kenyon) owns the domain name for Gypsy (gypsydinner). Just sayin'.
How on earth are they going to enforce this?
this is so stupid. it is stupid, but it is nothing like the plastic bags.
This is a hundred million times stupider than the plastic bag thing. Written permission to make Beer Can Chicken? Or any of the eighteen million wine reduction sauces? Fuck you, WSLCB.
Correction: gypsydinners.com
no for reals..
i'm with fnarf.. what would it take to completely rid this city of the most asnine, backwards, responsible to no one, fascistic, and almost secret socities in this city ?
i've seen clubs fine to bare existence over issues of lighting, how much public nudity may be allowed, (..' no nipples ever' ) dancing, and recently noise infractions. and almost always they'll say they've 'received a complaint '. they don't have to tell you who complained and they won't. their rules arbitrarily and magically appear as do the fines.
who knows what we have do to boot the whole lot of them ? meinert do you know ? i too hate them SO FUCKING MUCH.
It's pretty horrifying when supposedly liberal Washington State has a Liquor Control Board that is far more conservative and draconian that any in the Bible Belt.
Grrrr. I'm so mad I can't even type a coherent post about this. I'm bummed about Gypsy and I'm bummed about the cool classes at Culinary Communion having to be changed. And I'm sad that Heidi and Gabriel have to deal with this crap. And dammit, the law is stupid. stoo-pid.
BTW, here's the regulation text: http://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=66.12.140
If anything ever called for an initiative, or a special session of the legislature, to once and for all abolish the Liquor Control Board, this is it.
I'd even sign a Tim F'ing Eyman petition for that.
It'd take an Eyman initiative to abolish it--WSLCB's a big revenue source for the state, and a favorite dumping ground for the governor's campaign contributors and old politicos waiting for their pensions to vest.
Problem is, everytime someone suggests eliminating it, they point to all the union jobs that would be lost out of the liquor stores. Then the conversation bogs down to nothingness.
If you pay Tim Eynman to do it he will. He is such a whore.
Did the LCB say anything about cooking with weed?
Costco and the big box stores that'd like to sell hard alcohol might do it.......
Thanks for the link to the RCW.
Short of abolishing the Board, I would amend the first sentence of paragraph (1) to add "and consumption" and delete "for cooking purposes," and delete paragraph (5) entirely.
That shouldn't violate the single subject rule.
Washingtin state has THE MOST RETARDED liquer laws EVER! I swear it's run by a 95 year old retired nun.
I'm pretty sure a $10 banquet permit available at any liquor store would get around this. Simple to get at least 1 day before any event, allows for BYOB or giving away alchohol, it just cant be sold (cough...donation jar...cough).
I used to have wied eyed fath in the ideals and promise of socialism...then I turned 21 in washington and learned the ins and outs of state run liquer stores, the ridiculous hours, over trafficed locations,etc
Even the bars around here are pretty strict compaired to oregon where you can drink in a movie theater
I'm not saying your utah or anything but your pretty strict considering you dont have nearly as much fundamentalists as texas and they have some of the loosest laws in the country (not counting california)
This makes me want to cry. Who turned them in? Was it a personal vendetta?
Yeah, you know it was kind of a culture shock coming here from Denver where you can get liquor anywhere (just not on Sunday--but I think they changed that?). And I always feel uncomfortable at the state liquor store, especially since I don't go often so I tend to stock up and then I feel like they are passing judgement on my large quantity of liquor as they scan it. And there are always several creepy old men clutching cheap bottles of Monarch Rum standing too close to me and breathing down my neck.
Just cook with pot instead.
I'm a union member, and I have a prepared response to the "oh, but we'd lose all those good union jobs" argument: Oh for fuck's sake, fuck off.
Alcoholic beverages above a nebulously-defined percentage level (regular stores sell port and sherry, which is fortified with brandy, and runs up to about 18-20%) is a RETAIL PRODUCT just like any other retail product. Tax? Sure, no problem, I don't care if you tax the shit out of the stuff. Prevent sales to minors? Fine, I don't care.
But WHY WHY WHY do I have to drive a ridiculous distance to buy a bottle of Scotch if I get stuck at work past 7:00 PM, which is when my local store shuts? WHY WHY WHY do I have to drive even further if I want to buy it on a Sunday, a day that is a RELIGIOUS HOLIDAY for some people but not for me? WHY WHY WHY can I not get any of the common brands I enjoy the most, or the uncommon brands that I love to experiment with? WHY WHY WHY is some knob-like bureaucrat in Olympia deciding that White Horse Scotch (the only cheap blend with Islay malts in it) available at Greenwood but not Wallingford or Ballard?
When I visit Corti Brothers in Sacramento, CA, or Lee's Discount Liquors in Las Vegas, NV, or -- Jesus God Almighty -- Binny's in Chicago, IL, why do I almost burst into tears at the incredible selection of items I've never even heard of -- a hundred different kinds of rum! Why can't we have that?
That's not even mentioning the kind of jackass rules that got a Greek restaurant's license pulled shut down for having -- GASP! -- Greek dancing, or this latest buzzkill.
God damn the WSLCB to hell.
funny poptart, i was liveing in that hellhole greeley for about six months before i came out here......drive through liquer stores...yeah I like to get my stuff in a hurry but COMEON!! this isint mcdonolds...i think it's ridiculous but I'm not a damned fool who demands places like that close,wonder how much the kill joys would freak if they saw one of those drivethrough shops
When this gets picked up by the national press and the state gets some appropriate ridicule perhaps the legislature will make an amendment to the liqour law. Let's face it, cooking schools are small businesses and the legislature is supposedly pro-business. I won't hold my breath but I may use it to call my local state rep.
@24: I cry when I walk in a *Safeway* in California. A large selection of alcohol, sale prices, buying in bulk, one stop shopping... why is it so hard here?
Can't we tax it without setting arbitrary rules and prices?
Do the drive-thru liquor stores in Louisiana still serve alcoholic drinks in big cups, to-go? I think it was the only state without an open container law at one point.
My favorite retarded liquor law is the one in I think North Carolina, which REQUIRES that all bars stock booze only in single-serving bottles, i.e., airplane bottles. Doubles, triples, no problem, it just has to come out of the mini-bottles. They open and pour MILLIONS of the fucking things, and their trash piles are an awesome thing to behold.
@28 - that's South Carolina you're talkin' about.
- North Carolina.
I always get you cracker states confused.
This email from Culinary Communion is incredibly disingenuous. Go to their website. The class at the top of the page is a bourbon tasting. They are selling liquor. The WSLCB is 100% correct in requiring them to get the proper permits and licenses. Just because they also offer cooking classes does not exempt them from having to follow the law.
Get the laws changed. Quit bitching about people enforcing the laws.
@31: Teaching classes in enjoying and pairing spirits is not the same as "selling liquor." It's an educational activity that happens to involve booze.
Am I wrong? Are they selling casks of bourbon after the class?
Puritanical bullsh-t.
They still do have the drive-thru frozen drinks in Louisiana. The rule is, as long as the straw's not in the cup, it's not an open container!
Who pushes this shit? What's the big lobby that keeps these laws on the books.. or rather, enforced? Having grown up in Washington, I cannot describe my joy the other day when MOTHERFUCKING RITE AID was having a sale on Bourbon (Whiskey, really, but I prefer the former variety, which was included). Not the best selection, but Makers is good enough for me. It's like everything was right for a moment.
And while we're talking about it, FUCK YOU M.A.A.D.
@34: Mothers Against Alcoholic Dougs?
It's because they all have dough and don't want to lose any of it to taxes. And to justify their greed, they come up with some shit like, "I can more efficiently spend my money than the government can."
OK...then repair some bridges, motherfucker.
It's all about money. That's where their priorities lie. Money uber alles.
#36 Ooops. Wrong post.
WSLCB is a joke. Why does it take so long to undo all the post-prohibition provincialism in this state? California hasn't fallen into the sea (yet) by allowing liquor to be sold - well - everywhere.
I was speaking to a hairdresser a few months ago. She used to offer a glass of wine to her clients but had to stop the practice because of the WSLCB. Stupid and sad and it needs to be changed.
Outside of the Bible Belt, it must be a uniquely Northwest thing. Oregon is nearly as bad (in a restaurant, you can only have two drinks before ordering food) and British Columbia has some pretty provincial liquor laws as well.
Fnarf, I cry at Binny's too.
I'm guessing this is kind of a wakeup call for similar outfits who host "underground dinners" with guest chefs, eh? What a bummer.
Seattle: More like Provo every day.
@29: WA is so cracker.
Until very recently, you could order liquor from places like Binny's and BevMo and have it delivered to your door. Shipping could be pretty expensive, but you could get a lot of spirits not available in the state-run shitholes.
They started cracking down on that a few months ago. Fuckers.
You can still get liquor delivered from online places. Just make sure it's got "wine" in the name so they think it's wine (which is legal).
Death to the WSLCB.
I've addressed this issue in previous posts on the same subject; if you want to direct your wrath and ire at the entity holding WA back to end-of-prohibition asshattery, blame the WA Restaurant Association.
They're the ones who played a major role in pushing through "state-run liquor stores", "exclusive, non-competitive beer & wine distribution system", and until just a few years ago, the "only places that serve food can serve booze by-the-glass" provisions we've had to live with since drinking became legal again in this country.
Restaurants still make HUGE profits from liquor sales, even with the relaxation of where you can buy drinks, and they're going to fight to keep that economic edge for as long as possible - and they've got the cash to put up one hellofa fight, if it comes down to that.
But, I generally do agree with most of the posters here, the WSLCB is an archaic dinosaur in a land of scrappy mammals, and needs to become extinct as soon as it is both politically and practically possible.
oh shit. I'm taking a class at CC right now...I think it's because of this under 21 girl in my class. Maybe she told her mom that we were all drinking wine (and NOT offering her any) and the mom freaked and called the city...or one of the other attendees...(is not looking forward to my baking class tomorrow now due to suspecting one of them is a douche)
It kills me that we have public money devoted to prevent the serving of alcohol in a cooking class but we can't get enough public money to find a man that's groped 23 Asian women or the man that shot 3 people in a pub last Friday. Of these three issues all happening on Beacon Hill, I'd say alcohol at the CC is the least of my concerns.
Thank god that The State has FINALLY responded with shock & awe to the lawlessness on Beacon Hill. No doubt the shooter at the Beacon Hill pub last Friday had just wrapped up his Indian cooking class when he decided to go bust a cap into a couple of classmates who had fucked up his Vindaloo...nanny state indeed, good to see my tax $$$ being well spent! Now I know that the WSLCB is not responsible for criminal investigations relating to the discharge of firearms into humans, but FUCK ME, what is becoming of WA state??
Talk about your tempest in a teatotaler pot...this is it. Granted, it gives everyone a chance to vent about the State being in the liquor business (for the record I don't think they should be), but for every guideline there are 2 ways around it, legally.
If you are cooking with bourbon and not serving it, that's legal. Heat evaporates the alchohol, you are not serving alchohol. It's not illegal to posess booze if you are over 21, so this is legal all the way, easy.
If you are serving bourbon, simply get a banquet permit as I posted earlier. Takes 5 minutes, costs $10. End around, case closed.
Yes, the WSLCB is archaic, but far from draconian, if people bothered to research the laws, or even ask questions of the powers that be, this is a non-issue.
Bottom line, follow the rules nominally and fork over $10 and you can do what you want, where you want.
@46: Actually it takes a really long time for all the alcohol to burn off.
@47, I stand corrected! Never saw those numbers before, guess I've ilegally served lots of people...french cooking and such:)
Keep in mind though something like bourbon in cooking is usually used in small amounts as it's an overpowering flavor, so using 2 oz. in a preparation for 8 and burning off any leaves very little per person, though enough for the WSLCB I guess.
Basically anyone who uses wine in cooking can be faulted for this too.
On a side note, got a killer recipe for Chocolate Boubon Pecan Pie that will get you tipsy on a slice if anyone (over 21) is interested.
The state can move alcohol to retail and tax it just the same as they do cigarettes. They would no longer have the overhead of labor and space costs that they do now and make even more money. Just feel lucky that we don't live in a state, like New York, which does not allow you to bring wine or beer in from other states.
@48: I love Chocolate Pecan Pie.
@49: What are you talking about exactly? I know I've drunk several California wines and Vermont beers in my youth in NYC.
uh, what about the non-credit community classes on wine tasting at Seattle Central or North Seattle Comm College? Boy, I guess they need to be shut down too. I wonder if Mayor Dickles called in the complaint on Culinary Communion because they allowed the leftovers to go home in styrofoam containers neatly placed in plastic bags? Just think'n.
Dawgson, you only drank west coast wines in NYC because a NYC licensed liquor importer bought it and served or sold it to you. As a private person you cannot come to Washington, Oregon, or California and pick up a bottle of wine and take it back to NYC (unless you have a liquor import license.) About 15 states (including Massachusetts) have similar laws. It is supposed to protect New York's local vineyards (which sounds like an oxymoron).

Toulouse have not played like two-time defending Top 14 champions this season but on Friday they will hope that the onset of the play-offs reignites their champion mentality and they dispose of Racing-Metro.
If they do so it will bring to an end the stormy Racing reign of former France and Italy coach -- and club managing director for the past season -- Pierre Berbizier, who revealed this week that he was staying on even though he had effectively been sacked on March 30.
Toulouse's lustre has taken a bit of a battering this season as the record four-time European Cup winners have seen their thunder stolen both domestically and abroad by Clermont and Toulon.
Both of them have the weekend off after finishing first and second respectively in the league while they also contest the European Cup final on May 18 in Dublin.
The other play-off, which is on Saturday, features the third successive meeting at this stage of Castres -- whose coaches Laurent Labit and Laurent Travers will replace Berbizier next season -- and 2011 finalists Montpellier.
Toulouse, who will have been pulled together this week in no uncertain fashion by their legendary manager Guy Noves, will want to prevent both trophies going to one or other club and defy the critics who believe their golden era is at an end.
To do this Toulouse will have to see off the two clubs who are seen as the nouveau riche of the elite in Racing-Metro and then Toulon in the semi-finals.
Toulon, owned by comic book publisher Mourad Boudjellal, and Racing-Metro, owned by Swiss property magnate Jacky Lorenzetti, have seen their success feted less and their players viewed as mercenaries.
Noves -- who has won 12 French championships, two as a player and 10 as manager, all with Toulouse -- said that league form could now be dispensed with as the play-offs had their very own flavour.
"Everyone changes during the week, from the guy who cleans out the dressing rooms to the club president. They are like a chameleon shedding its skin," he told L'Equipe this week.
"The play-offs are a moment when you must have the desire to kill somebody.
"You have to concentrate obsessively, and I mean obsessively, on the smallest detail.
"In the end advancing 50 centimetres or retreating 50 centimetres can be the difference between winning and losing."
Noves, a slippery wing who was capped seven times from 1977-79, said that he hammered into his players that this was a one-off game and therefore they could not afford to let up one moment.
"You either win because you were more determined than your opponent, or you lose and you are on holiday. When I hear 'We will remember that next time' that makes me laugh.
"But yes of course, only that you have to wait at least a year in order to do so," he added.
The 59-year-old, who will have a full squad apart from injured wing and son-in-law Vincent Clerc, and perhaps No8 Louis Picamoles, dismissed the fact that Toulouse had beaten Racing in both their league games this season.
"The last match was down to the last piece of play (try by Clerc on the siren which was converted by Lionel Beauxis for a 27-26 win. So I don't think that counts for much," said Noves.
Toulouse, who lost nine matches in the Top 14 this season -- their worst record since losing 11 in the 2009/10 campaign -- will face a Racing-Metro side whose good end of season form belies the huge internal ructions.
Not only will Berbizier be departing but also their Argentinian coach Gonzalo Quesada -- for bitter Parisian rivals Stade Francais -- while 20 players too look like departing.
Quesada will be hoping that France wing Benjamin Fall recovers from a thigh injury which forced him to miss the last league match although Quesada's compatriot Juan Imhoff should be fit.
