Would you mind me asking what is wrong? Please don't answer if you don't want to say, I understand.
You know where I am, same with everyone on here. It would mean alot to me if we can meet up for a drink sometime, that goes to you all, including Sax.
Auks, if you don't spend a fortune on getting a flight back for one game, your dead to me

Despair, I have really been quite poorly this past 6 months, I have had 2 kidney stones in 6 months!! I realise this isn't life threatening, and others are in far worse positions than me. But Christ they have taken it out of me! I have had them in the past, but I was in my early 30's. Now I'm 41 and my recovery is taking much longer, and taken a lot out of me. I feel old and stuff for the first time in my life!!
Not a problem:
However, there’s nothing spectacular about my laid up condition, as it’s just a mobility prob I incurred early last Dec and it’s taken until this last couple of weeks for me to feel ok again.
No big deal except I’m a normally very active person and I don’t take non activity well.
Sounds pretty selfish really but I am what I am, but still constantly feel for those less fortunate in their ailments and feel grateful I’ve nothing major (nor have I ever).
My lack of time is down to my retirement ‘project’ abroad and is where my mobility ailment derived from in all likelihood .
And that’s what I have to return to, to continue and try to complete.
This is where my absence from matches stems from.

As for LT comments section re : thread title;
Not surprisingly, to me anyway, many on there are crowing about TM ‘endorsing’ their booing 🤔
That’s not how I read it, I reckon TM has been quite subtle in saying he understands frustration and although he reckons the paying punters have the right to show displeasure he is not outright implying booing is ok. I would think he’s inferring that their ‘over passion’ has got the better of them.
I would add the words, that is ‘regrettable ‘.

So all I would say to that contingent is;
Let’s all boo the lads every half time whistle and then we’ll sail this league!
