    And further forward 2 slow midfielders even worse. My memories of Huddleston and Johnson together still makes me wince.

    Two slow central defenders side by side is not a recipe for success.

    He will lose a season of his career and end up on poorer money afterwards most likely. Knob head.

    Has he been linked with anyone yet?
    Not heard of him training with X or Y. Probably been running round the park I guess but his stock/wage options will be on the wane.
    Such a shame. Can’t really be a chore playing for us this season with some other good pro’s and promising youth. Suspect he is having regrets and also sticking pins into a voodoo doll of his agent.

    A couple of weeks ago, my auntie and uncle went missing while on their way to a routine hospital appointment in Toronto. 
    My uncle (90) has had stage 4 cancer for the past decade, and my auntie (83), was driving him in when she got lost during a storm. 48hrs later they were found, safe enough in their car, very dehydrated though. 
    The responders insisted they attend the hospital as a precaution, despite my aunt's protestations. 
    They gave her a full scan, as she was obviously disorientated.  
    They found a mass on her breast, which she'd known about for 3 years, and kept quiet so she could continue to look after her husband! 
    They subsequently found the cancer had spread, but would respond to treatment, so arranged a care plan for her, which involved moving into a long term care facility, away from her husband of 50+ years. 
    He took a massive turn for the worse, and 2 weeks ago they moved her from her bed in the same hospital, to share his room while he slipped away, so they were together in the end. 
    The funeral was unbelievably quick, around 2 days, and we could watch it on Zoom. 
    One week on, we've received the news that my Aunt has also passed, basically died of a broken heart. 
    She lived to love him, gave up when he went, so I'm glad she didn't suffer unduly waiting to be reunited. 
    It's their kids I feel sorry for. I know their grown ups, but to lose both parents in the same month must be hard.

    I wonder how much it'd cost a club to loan Bielik, can't see any going for paying more than his wages? Can't see any club loaning him to be honest, could they rely on his fitness and if not why bother.

    Well it's been a fairly  ?y  9 or 10 months. In October, after a routine checkup, my wife was diagnosed with a tumour in her left breast. After several weeks of what seemed like ever worsening prospects she was operated on and what looked to be really daunting ended up as being the worst nightmare you could imagine, but at least we've now woken up and the hope is that a small scar will be the worst of the (physical) effects.
    At around the same time we were told that my dad's lymphoma had returned and that he would need Chemotherapy.
    Problems with a (married) couple of workmates who were having problems with their family were making work days pretty unbearable.
    I ended up realising that I had a mild form of depression when a spent a Saturday in bed crying. Strangely this made me realise I needed help and talking it through with friends was sufficient to help through.
    Unfortunately after 5 or 6 years of being clear of cancer my dad's physical strength wasn't the same as when first diagnosed and the treatment was having an adverse effect on him and he decided to stop having it. He also had breathing problems after years working in a foundry and at Willington power station. 
    Yesterday the fight finally got the better of him and he passed away. 
    Although these are difficult times I am at least happy because my wife, daughter, her boyfriend and I were able to get over for three days at the beginning of the month and I was able to say goodbye whilst he was still just well enough to appreciate what was going on.
    I'm feeling low at the moment, but I'm not feeling depressed. Reading some of the stories on here allow me to realise that I'm lucky. My wife is doing well (perhaps too well because she's still off work and wants "fiesta", I want to relax), tensions at work are easing and I've pretty much made up my mind to look for another job, and although my dad is no longer with us I'm thankful that he is no longer suffering.
    ps if you've got loved ones tell them you love them before it's too late.!A British stiff upper lip is a load of bow locks. You'll feel much better for it.

    Hell of a commute to Boro from Stoke (163 miles) so does he move house to go there for better pay and play at a higher level than us ? Or,does he travel to Derby( easier journey-35 miles) on lower money and look at our other signings and think that he’d like to be part of the LR project at a bigger club.Minimal disruption and exciting project or more money at dour Boro.-your call Tommy ?
