    ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

    I see that Danny Murphy is one of a group of premiership players who lost a packet after bad business advice. He personally claims to have lost five million quid of his own money. Shame that. Quite ruined my week...

    ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

    In that BBC article where he bigs up his own achievements, he's constantly referring to Rooney as 'Wazza'. Just when I thought he couldn't ever irritate me more than that 'rubbing his hands together' celebration, he surprises me again.

    ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

    Some RS balloon on TalkSport earlier was asked about whether this made him think differently about when Chelsea spent a lot to win things. His reply was that it was completely different, that he had factored in a 'brilliant' shirt sponsorship deal, he had then 'crunched the numbers' (yes, he...

    Come on, you remember. They turned up at the training ground on bikes, with their boots tied around the crossbar by the laces, wearing their dads' Crown Paints kit. Boyhood reds they were, begging for a kick about. They played for sandwiches.

    ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

    Interesting,but... He claims that referring to a woman as 'my tart' is a loving contraction of the word 'sweetheart', and any other interpretation was a shock to him. Reeeeeeeally?? :dodgy:

    ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

    Nine weeks since my wife passed, and it's been the hardest time I've ever suffered by light years. Not doing footy much still, but I do read this thread to get a smile myself. Blues are good people. Now, back to ripping that shower a new one... :)

    If you could spend one hour with another forum member

    A boringly serious answer, but a few people who have tried their best to help with the rather dire mental health issues I've been and am still suffering following my recent catastrophic bereavement. They know who they are. Evertonians are good people. I knew that but it's been reinforced. For...

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    Sorry to people wondering where I was. I've been really making a positive effort to see the advantages to things (even small things like a gaming session at a mate's house) which I couldn't do before. I say effort, because that step forward led to a great leap back this week. I picked up the...

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    I have never felt lower than tonight. Ever. I suddenly had the realisation that if the same happened to me as happened to my beloved Janet I would lie undiscovered for a week or more, decaying. I have no kids or close family, nobody calls me regularly or comes to the house, the neighbours only...

    When Did Footballers Stop Tucking There Shirts In?

    Robin Friday. Coolest 'untucker' ever. The man made George Best look like Michael Owen

    It was Janis Joplin to my mind. Or if not, then Suzi Quatro

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    Thanks people for wondering how I am. I'm still here, but struggling a bit. I've got through some practicalities, I've claimed for UC and I have a car being delivered tomorrow - a 20-year old Ford SportKA for £1500, but it will keep me mobile, and I've paid for it and got a good insurance policy...

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    I've had a bad day today. Last night I felt just a little better for a little while, I went round to a friend's, had a chat and played a board game, and enjoyed it. When I got home about 1am, I put my weekly radio show together as normal, watched some TV with a few beers, and I even started...

    I am in Garswood, so I believe not far from yourself... The final time of death was called in Wigan Infirmary

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    I haven't posted in a few days, sadly because things have gone from bad to unimaginably worse for me. I don't think I even want to bring this up on a mainstream thread. I got the death certificate yesterday and saw the bank about Janet's finances. I knew following her death that she had been...

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    There's still a world turning out there?? I've had the stress from hell this last few days. She used to do the finances, as that was her 'thing', being otherwise trapped in a chair the whole day, and I found out that the savings account was in her name, so without a death certificate yet the...

    My wife died suddenly, and I'm not doing well...

    Yes, of course. Her name was Janet

    Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

    Be careful what you wish for about me posting as all I seem to be doing at the moment is going from one person to another and pouring my heart out, just hoping something will help. I must seem such a pain! I really don't know what the universe can have in store for me next. After losing three...
