That's depressing. #Old

I hear you. It seems like everyday you get a reminder of getting old. Especially with this current trend/obsession with 20/25th Anniversaries of films/albums etc. 

 

I actually met an ex-Gers player in a bar at the weekend whilst out with the good lady and he was one of my heroes as a youth. We spent some time with him and his partner/missus but Christ did it make think about how time has flown in. 

 

Going back to the family connections...I was listening to the Boro V Spurs game last week and they kept mentioning a Boro player called Tavernier. For an awful moment I thought we'd punted Tav and I missed it as I busy with work over the last few weeks and hadn't been paying attention to the news. Turns out it was his younger brother! Thank feek

He set up a goal at the weekend with a nice backheel pass - tidy player is Marcus.

A Scottish newspaper claims that Roma have or will attempt to loan Barisic before making a permanent move in the summer. Apparently laughed out of Ibrox and SG and Co. "have told Barisic" that he won't go anywhere in mid-season ... which leads to the assumption (by the reporter) that Barisic might actually be willing to go there.

We could do with a good right back and a jolly good back up striker

... which coincides with the rumours that Tav's appendix has burst and he'll be out for a month. Rumours for the time being.

No reason to believe it at this stage. Seems to me very inprobable it would get to the stage of bursting.

i had my appendix burst 7/8 years ago and I'm pretty active, playing football at a decent level 3/4 times a week and I can tell you, it took far far longer than a month for me to get even remotely near playing again.

He has appendicitis apparently. Hopefully they've caught it long before it burst but he'll certainly be out for a few weeks, particularly if he gets it removed.
