Could have used that description for Steve Perryman back in the day. A born leader. One cap for England and that towards the end of his career.

Also apply that to the Romford Pele, Ray Parlour, loved his fight and spirit.

Agree that England should take Carroll if he's fit, if not, Lambert instead. I didn't think Rooney and Sturridge clicked at all the other night, and time is short to see if they eventually do, so a plan B is definitely needed.

Don't know what's happened to Cleverley. For a period of about 6 months around the time Utd beat Arsenal 8 2, he was on fire, not sure if he then got injured, but since then he's fallen off a cliff. At the moment he doesn't even merit getting into Utd's squad...

Normally I would agree about the compo, I'm sure there's precedent, but I think this situation is a little complicated because Wilshire clearly played on with the injury (14mins to 58mins). My guess is that the player wanted to play on. By doing so, did this aggravate the injury?...

Even the most one eyed Manc couldn't justify Cleverley at the moment...

wot otta said.

It is a different world and following Daley's inspirational example I reckon the wider reaction will be positive.

If his team mates do likewise then they should be fine, though I suspect he'll get a mauling from some opposition players and opposition fans.


Effing gutter press, threatening/blackmailing people for exclusives as if who someone boffs is newsworthy*, cunts!!!


*unless of course it's ryan boffing his sister in law ;)

Maybe, but where's the FA's duty of care? Surely it's up to the the manager decide and the medical staff to give guidance to him?

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By Sue · Posted

      How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't be just be struck off, or the equivalent?

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      By richard tudor · Posted

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By malumbu · Posted

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
