Hi all...I've deleted/edited the original post to this and I apologise for putting it up in the first place as I was angry and a little put out when a footballer goes viral over a damaged leg. This board doesn't need the depth of detail I posted as it's entertainment we are looking for not grim reading
anyway thank you all for your words of hope and prayers but Chaz lost her battle yesterday with her family at her bedside
Thanks go out to the amazing first responders the police and critical medical team, nurses etc, thank you all again and please accept my apologies

No need for an apology Turk.
Obviously an emotional time and related to an earlier post.
From what you had posted, the sad outcome seemed likely.
Sorry to hear that I may be seeing more flowers on that stretch of road when I next pass by.

Your choice to post it Turk and again your choice to edit it - well done for both.

Even as "outsiders", nobody on here could have failed to be moved by such a traumatic event amongst an unknown family, and thank God the majority of us never will.

Maybe the fact that a number of forum members including me didn't respond to your original post was nothing to do with the content. It was possibly because it hit home a bit hard on their own past personal tragedies and not necessarily involving vehicles either.

Nothing anyone on here can say will reduce the current pain so I'll shut up for now - sympathy to all concerned.

Just contemplating the European scores from the last few days.
How many games?
Still not sure how the league works as there are too many teams for a round Robin.
No idea what the competitions are now. Too many teams for it to be 'special'.
Just tv fillers and attempts at cash generation.
Sad.

So, currently sat in O'Neils in Cardiff after doing some Xmas shopping with Mrs Brizzle and then getting stuck thanks to GWR and their militant staff causing umpteen cancellations back to Bristol.

Watching the Man City v Man Utd game, it's barely league 1 standard.... Awful game, awful errors all over the pitch and 2 really poor looking sides.

Makes me feel glad to be a Bluebird (at least briefly anyhow <laugh>)

Gary Neville called it one of the worst Manchester derbies he’s seen - “poor in quality.”
He’s not wrong. Amad’s goal aside it was dull, boring and 2 hours of my life I’m not getting back.

Wales Ladies draw England, France and Netherlands in the Euros. A tough group.

Absolutely. Probably as tough a group as there could have been. However, for a nation just stepping upwards from the bottom rung, it will provide invaluable experience for players, trainers and management staff alike.
The important thing will be to try and manage expectations without throwing cold water over ambition. It'll certainly be a tough gig for Rhian in trying to instill belief while being ready to be a comfort if the worst happens.
Whatever happens, the current group have at last set firm foundations for the future. In qualifying and they already deserve hero status.
So, have a go and learn from the experience.

Just popped over for one of my occasional visits and read this.
Such tragic news. Thoughts and prayers are with you, her family and friends at this sad time.
Life is so fragile and we take it for granted sometimes. <rose>

Thank you for your kind words and thanks to everyone else for their thoughts and prayers too
Just to update everyone, things are going to be dragged out for a while as there has to be an inquest
Police liaison officers are visiting her mum daily
New boyfriend (nobody has met him) broken pelvis - And charged with causing death by dangerous driving
Basically he had just upgraded from a 1.4 clio and got himself a high powered bmw and just as he was entering a national speed limit road he floored it to impress and spun it out of control, I know it happens a lot with motorcyclists but I rarely hear about it with motorists
very sad though .... and thanks again :emoticon-0153-broke

Anyone see Tottenham’s opener last night? Carbon copy of Alnwicks error for Stoke’s opener with Man U keeper palming a distant shot straight into the path of a Man U player<doh>

However nothing as bad as Forster’s two howlers <doh><doh>
