He's back where he belongs. That's all that matters. He is such a nice fella. I heard some stories today of the things he is doing for people. Top, top man.

When my mate put him on the phone to me this week, he sounded so genuine and had time for me rather than glibly humouring me. Really decent man.

Mods - any chance we could sticky this thread for a couple of weeks please? Just as he's finished it may slip off page one and another week or two may get some to put another pound or two donation in.

Absolutely no problem, FLT. Good idea. I don't think I'll need to confer with the lads. I'll just have to get it in the neck if they disagree. :)

Crikey chaps. Anyone would think I'm a pretty old fellow.

With no bucket collection yesterday my £20 is burning a hole in my pocket.

I can't pay with a mobile telephone as I don't have one and I am uneasy about making payments over the internet.

So can anyone tell me how can I give my £20 to Franny?

There were some buckets yesterday. Is there a cancer research shop in Southampton?

I don't think Franny's Livewire organisation have helped themselves too much because they haven't organised a non-techy way of donating. Of course, you could go into any Cancer Research shop and put your money across the counter and tell them it's for Benali's Big Run, but I doubt if it will be counted, and may not even get to it. And if we look at his website we can see that he's only managed 11% of his target. I said very early on that he wasn't getting the numbers in, despite all those signed shirts. It hasn't really energised people, like it could have, and I fear now that it might not, which will be a great shame. The national media proper need to get hold of this. BBC Sport, on Southampton's local page had an Ex-footballer runs for charity headline. Doesn't really getting them standing up in the aisles, does it:

All I can suggest St.G is that you find a way of paying, or get yourself a Paypal account. That is more secure than carrying money or cards around in your pocket. Plus, you can pay for things over the net.
