Mick Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 His doctors said he was terminal last year. I know a 6 year old who died of a brain tumor he had since 2 years old. 4 years of living in hospitals, operation after operation, fed through a tube, chemo and "hope". Terrible for the family but he'd have been better off dying at 2 rather than having those 4 years of "life". I'm not sure I would have seen it that way if that happened to one of my kids.

They didn't but it would have saved the child a lot of pain and suffering. Pets are spared suffering. The same rules are never applied to humans. The parents will never get over it.

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 True but the child would have been spared. I'm speaking from experience of having seen it happen to people close to me. I forgot to mention the child also went blind. At least if it happens to an adult they can elect to have no further treatment. Parents don't want to give in even though it's probably better that they do. They'll try anything. It's understandable. It'll be sad when he dies but at least he'll not be suffering anymore.

Raconteur Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 just think of the capers in here with giggs if they get Giggs. Alternatively, the mackems might appoint Sophie Ellis Baxter as their new manager. Probably do as good a job as the losers mentioned in the press.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Has Giggs ruled himself out or something? I've literally seen very little news about these lot since they got relegated, so haven't seen it but he's dropped from odds on favourite to 10/1 with most bookmakers. Still amazed they aren't doing anything yet, aren't the players due back for pre-season in a few weeks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lower League teams usually go back a week or two earlier than the big boys in the Premier League with their season starting earlier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Defoe has confirmed that he's off to Bournemouth, £60k p/w according to SSN which is someway short of the £100k+ that was previously reported. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Wasn't the £100k+ always going to be bonus related anyway? I read a while ago his salary would start at 60 ish thousand a week then might increase with bonuses Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a while ago his salary would start at 60 ish thousand a week then might increase with bonuses No idea, I was going off this - which didn't specify how the wages were being structured, £70k p/w in bonuses seems a bit bizarre. I presume Paully will recall what article he got this from. Defoe set to sign a three year deal at Bournemouth on 130K a week - not bad for a 34 year old!
