Terrible. Sounds like he has a young family too. Awful for them.

 

[Gutter Boy]

Very sad news. I remember being there for the match he made his debut (Gillingham in the league cup)

 

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

Great shame, always gave 100% and played anywhere for the team.

That time in Madrid may not have been wasted:

Lovely to see Seb Bassong on sky sports news today (yes was surprising as I thought he was suspended too), the guy looks to be doing well within himself and is some kind of life coach.

Fernando Llorente retired. Had a great career, and did a job for us, scoring some absolute crucial goals, like vs City in the CL quarter final.
Happy retirement Fernando!

Jack Clarke having a break out season for Sunderland, nice to see after a badly advised move to us, 8 goals and 7 assists so far, decent return in the championship

I think the badly advised move was sending him back to Leeds on loan so that Biesla wouldn’t even pick him in the match day squads. Massively stunted his development.

I was having a read the other day and the Mackems are a bit split on his ability, some saying he's inconsistent with the others contesting that by saying he's left to do it all on his own on his side of the pitch UNLESS (ironically) Cirkin has been fit and playing, when the pair are good together.

They all think Cirkin is good along with Trai Hume on the right side. In fact think they've fallen on their feet with two young stars.

Not exactly appreciation, but I caught the end of a news item this morning about the Kyle walker flashing his man bits. Don't see any mention anywhere else, is it an old story?

it referenced last Saturday or Sunday, but easy to lose track of his decision making “balls” ups… what a plonker {I didn’t see it of course]

Yeah I heard the end of that as well, on the back of an item about men exposing themselves to women. It sounded as if it were recent - would be a bit random to bring it up otherwise.
