I don’t think I’d like the away fans back in the South stand after watching that. They need stuck in one of the corners. I’d say NE or SE.
 
"I'm attached so we can be recycled together" it says. Well, it gets right up my nose or pokes me in the eye, and Coca Cola must know that they've made them stupidly uncomfortable to drink from . . . . stupid bastards :steam:

Scissors are needed to get rid of the stupidly unnecessary bits of plastic to make them drinkable !
 
Sven-Goran Eriksson has revealed that he has “at best a year left to live” after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.

The 75 year old Swede collapsed while on a 5km run last year, which prompted doctors to investigate. They told the 75-year-old that he had suffered a stroke, and subsequently discovered the disease. “They don’t know how long I had cancer, maybe a month or a year,” The former England manager told Swedish radio station P1.

“Everyone understands that I have an illness that is not good. Everyone guesses that it’s cancer and it is, but I have to fight as long as I can. I have maybe at best about a year, at worst a little less, you can’t be absolutely sure and it's better not to think about it.”

Eriksson had been working as a sporting director for Swedish side Karlstad and stepped back from his role.

He said that he is trying to maintain a positive mindset. “You can trick your brain, see the positive in things, don’t wallow in adversity, because this is the biggest adversity of course, but make something good out of it.”

Eriksson’s long management career took in Swedish side Gothenburg, Portuguese giants Benfica, a host of Italian clubs including Roma and their city rivals Lazio, as well as Premier League sides Manchester City and Leicester. He also coached Mexico, Ivory Coast and the Philippines, but is most famous in Britain for taking charge of England’s 'golden generation' being the first foreign coach to manage England and leading the side to the quarter-finals of the 2002 and 2006 World Cups and 2004 Euros.
 
Awful. I didn’t realise he was 75 mind, thought he was a fair bit younger for some reason. Wish him all the best.
