A good book if you looking for something to read on your holidays he is pretty honest about his gambling addiction and how much money he thinks he has lost 7-8 million :shock: and how he took Shearer outside for a fight stpid stpid

I agree I've read it. He had a couple of half decent seasons but always thought he was over rated. He lived on his Barcelona performance for a long time.

He lived in Loons for a long time! Never seen a footballer embrace 'Wacky Wednesday' quite like the Irishman. And I know Boydy! The story about the Brizzle City bet/Darren Peacock goal still makes me wince.

I liked it, but I'm easily pleased with football books. Just finished warnocks, pirlos, a book on Suarez, cantona, the history of Barcelona n Real Madrid n why they rivals (called fear n loathing in la liga) which was my fav

A small place called Dalyan which is about 20 mins west of Dalaman. It's about 5 miles from the coast which is about 30 mins by riverboat away. A modest / quiet place although this will be my 3rd summer holiday there, the place is stunningly beautiful and unlike like many resorts it hasn't been over developed.

Oh dear, just checked the weather forecast for the next 7 days.....40c, 40c, 38c, 38c, 39c, 40c, 34c

I've been to Dalyan, cracking little town. One of the best places I've visited in Turkey.

I went to Dalyan a few years back as well, I thought it was great, I much prefer quiet places to the hustle and bustle of the bigger resorts

most of them are decent mutters and you think of the people a lot differently after reading their book.

Recently read half of zlatans was made up, so take what he says with a pinch of salt.

Actually I have a fair idea who you are :laugh:

You did very well over the weekend, you did us a favour and we did you one. Good effort yesterday to push Chester le Street close.
