CloustonHMFC Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 It looks like he's alive, thankfully. I've never witnessed anything so bad at football match. Credit has to go to the players around him who acted immediately and the incredible work of the medical professionals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically the scale of good is 1-12 , 13-59 (i think59) is bad. There is a lot of thought of 3to4 is optimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) Don't remember the words now but met a mate before a Hearts game a few years back and he was feckin pissed off with me. I had no idea why. Finally asked him what the problem was and he read out a text I'd sent him the day before. The way he read it out, intonation and no proper punctuation, it sounded awful and insulting. I read it back to him in the jocular way intended and he instantly realised the misunderstanding. Wish I could remember the words etc. but the point is that the written word, particularly if done sloppily, can easily be misinterpreted. I don't know @Cruyff personally, btw, so have no ulterior motive for posting but feel it's worth putting it out there. Thank God the news appears good.
