Otta, you perpetually appear to misunderstand me by telling me I'm trying to wind people up. However I'm sick of being told I'm throwing my toys out of the pram by someone/anyone who doesn't understand the non-point I might have been making. Half the point of my posts is that there isn't one. So sod it.

Having a difference of opinion doesn't mean throwing toys out of the pram.


Nor does it mean having an attitude, causing trouble, looking for an argument.


It just means thinking as an individual and being brave enough to show that you are different to the majority.

Keane has made a lot of comments in support of the many ex players who have been criticised by Ferguson.

Avoid? It was hardly under Scholes' control - I'd like a bit of Posh, i'll get one of those for meself. Oh and those Armani pants contracts, I'll get one of those too.... Sorry no takers.

I didn't think Keane was having a go at Scholes for having a career in the media


as I read it he was having a go at him for NOT doing the same media duties as a player that the other players did and that he hid behind a "aw gee shucks" persona - one he has now shed


As for two egomaniacs fighting over book sales - I strongly doubt they are fighting a zero sum game - most people reading one will read the other


And both will be infinitely more interesting than (to pick someone at random) Scholes book

    • Yes, we have a Casio CT-S100 we no longer need, except I dont think we have the headphones any more. It has a USB connection. £50? https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7333639
    • Thank you! She is both spayed and microchipped, and reported missing on Petlog and with the vets.   She normally never goes out the front, certainly for never more than 10-15 minutes, so this is definitely new territory for her. There is lots of dense foliage across the road so there are plenty of places she could be hiding if she is spooked, so we are hoping she will come back when she is calm. The weather isn't helping, she never goes out in the rain. Thank you again!
    • Hi, Have you been letting her out the front door onto the street or would this be a first & therefore unfamiliar with the area? Does she respond to a name & is she spayed & microchipped? Our team carry scanners on our daily routes & will of course be looking our for her. I hope you are reunited with her soon. If not already, notify your street & surrounding streets (find out if they have Whatsapp groups) Dox will print & deliver free missing posters https://www.doxdirect.com/help/free-missing-pet-posters/ Call her at dusk & dawn when street & foot traffic is at its lowest.

    • A slightly delayed review but another one to echo Niko's praises. I had an issue with a cistern that needed replacing and Niko was attentive and did a great job. He was very diligent, explained what he was doing and fixed issues from a previous plumber's work. I will definitely ask for his help again if I have any issues in the future.
