Mum died from MND. She suffered a traumatic accident with a steamer which saw her hospitalised with burns to her face. She was always convinced that was the trigger - it was around two years later that MND was diagnosed.

It’s purely anecdotal but there does seem to be some trauma correlation

Two games is a small sample size to get too excited about (albeit one was Liverpool) but I’ve seen an awful lot to like and nothing to make me doubt whatsoever. Looks a bargain.

Faultless thus far. Stronger, quick, intelligent and a good passer. Impressive.

This might sound a bit stupid but Sagan is relatively new to me - his sociological thinking - if I wanted to read more, what would be the best book to start with??

Sadly reminiscent of my Mum sitting in the consultant's room whilst on the other side of the door he was telling someone that the lady he was about to see almost certainly had Motor Neurone and he needed to do last tests to confirm. He was right. She suffered agonies in waiting for confirmation.

I genuinely think us signing Eze is completely unconnected to Havertz. Even if Kai is out for the season, we don’t do deals like this. I think we waited to see if Rodrygo or someone else was an option and as the Spuds got closer and closer, we decided to respond.

Reminds me a bit of the Manu Petit deal all those years ago.

We wouldn't be that lucky! Maybe one of those average young wide players they sold back in the day - De Bruyne or Salah?

On another note, I'm actually at the Leeds match on Saturday - you around?

So fellow Gooners with a seemingly long-term injury for Kai (ACL???) who do you reckon we'll go for - Jackson, Nkunku or Sterling??

It's not fun - there is a drop they can give you with a painkiller in it if you don't like and need to go again - I'm off for my annual dilation on Friday...πŸ™„

My local MP. He’s holding a meeting in our town on Thursday and I’m very tempted to go (suspect work will make the timing unworkable)

He entered a loaf? Did he have a knob of butter?

Sorry I couldn’t resist…

Oh, I wasn’t excluding the immigration issue, I was just referring to whom she may have worked for.

If she gained access to the US to work for Epstein, it’s bad, if she gained access to the US because she was a honey trap I suspect it’s a whole lot worse…

It’s all speculation of course…

Or, maybe she worked for someone else from her neck of the woods whose presence in the background would cause an even bigger shitstorm than a β€˜mere’ pedo and child trafficker.

A honeytrap isn’t that unusual or unuseful technique.

We never did meet Maris did we?

I’ve got this vague recollection of seeing her ankles or some other peripheral body part, but a bit like Howard’s mum in Big Bang Theory we never actually meet her I don’t think.

There is non so blind as those that won’t see - or something like that.

Let’s not bother letting the truth getting in the way of a bloody good moanfest.

I understand the urge to rail against that kind of nonsense, but you know they’re never gonna listen, too much risk of being proven wrong.

No, Ros had the wildcat about her. And wasn’t that Lilith? Super smart and would tie you up in mental knots whilst Ros would have you in an armlock.

I mean where the hell else is he going to go? Liverpool loan NUFC Ekitike? Chelsea give them Jackson (would he go to Chelsea?). City probably don't need/want him. Arsenal we'd love him but we seem to have Gyok done and dusted. Barca? Madrid?? PSG??? It's a diminishingly small market for him.
