    Crazy to think Ronaldo is 2 years older than him.

    Looks like Rooney has chosen the path of the other Ronaldo.

    Anyone watching the Port Vale v Swindon Playoff game?

    I will never moan about VAR again.

    No VAR in these play offs semi’s, and Swindon denied a clear penalty for handball, then PV go down the other end and score an offside goal.
    And we think the officials in the premier league are bad! <yikes>

    Not even two years - 17 months, I think.
    You'd think Rooney was 17 years older.
    Ironically, Rooney at his peak had a natural fitness, which came from his natural strength and power - quite short and stocky, but powerfully built, which gave him some pace and he had a good engine to get up and down the pitch - yet Ronaldo has always worked exceptionally hard to stay in tip top condition.
    There were separate programmes on TV about them at different times analysing what gave them their physical prowess; Rooney's seemed to be down to natural ability whereas Ronaldo was more reliant on conditioning.
    But as soon as Rooney stopped playing.......

    You should see some of the useless, clueless muppets we get in the Championship.

    One of the very worst is Simon Hooper who, somehow, does a few Prem games and also works in the VAR box. <yikes> A master of non-decision making in key areas.

    Has he graced Spurs ground yet? If not, you have a treat in store.

    BBC News has since apologised for being quite so accurate.
    Nice to see Ole's back in work again, though.

    My daughter is 15 on Thursday.
    She was born 14 weeks early.
    15 years ago today my wife went into labour, which the hospital were keen to prolong as long as possible. They wanted to transfer her to Liverpool as they had room in their Special Care Baby Unit. They were met with a firm “no”.
    15 years since we made our best ever decision.
    Nobody wants a Scouse daughter

    Both of my daughters were born in Croydon...which nobody really wants.

    My birth certificate says Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea...my mad mum rigged it so that it looked like we were posh. <laugh>

    One hidden gem in this whole uproar is that no-one is talking about the message immediately after the one slagging off United...

    "Weather: rain everywhere."

    Mine says London Hospital Whitechapel. Can't get much more common than that.

    I've got that beat: my birth certificate says I was both in Beckenham

    In a hospital that was subsequently demolished
