It seems that an Ex City player Alan Jarvis might be suffering for a similar condition to Jeff Astle, it would be nice to join in at 9 minutes applause. http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Ex-H...brain-damage/story-25243937-detail/story.html
Obviously it's terrible for the family but as they say they'll only know (perhaps) the cause after death. Dementia is apparently now the leading cause of death for women.
Think we've had this conversation before. I'm happy to applaud but i dont know what justice they want.
Work related injury. Have you not heard the advert on TalkShite? Headed too many of those rock hard, water soaked balls, with laces, in the 1950s and 60s? You might be entitled to compensation under the 'Things we know now that we didn't know then' law. See also, mothers who smoked in pregnancy, people who cooked with aluminium pans, anyone with Phossy jaw.
I sort of agree with this, I'll applaud as I have at previous games, but sadly Astle has gone and the issue no longer applies due to the balls changing, so I'm not sure it's going to achieve much.
I saw this week, that some women had tried to take court action to get compensation for babies born with birth defects caused by the mother drinking too much alcohol during pregnancy. It was thrown out, obviously, but I can't believe they actually brought the action in the first place.
Wasn't it that the whole affair had been swept under the carpet previously, and had just surfaced from under the sideboard? I can't be arsed to clap again I'm afraid. This will be the fourth time now.
Me mam was always telling me not to sit on cold concrete steps, you'lll get kinkoff (sp??), she didnt mention the farmers. Who shall i get to represent me Ernie??
I'd go with Kingcough on the spelling. The best solicitors for that type of case would be Lanacane, Germoloid and Anusol. They'll give you priority treatment and secure you the comfort and compo that you so obviously deserve. And are entitled to. You'll have to sue your Ma though.
The main point I posted this was more to show some solidarity to the Jarvis family, Alan Jarvis was a Hull City AFC player, I saw play in the sixties and he was a very good player for us.
He certainly was a classy player. I think he eventually lost an eye as the result of a squash injury.
