I am a very irregular contributor on here but thought I should share a little. A couple of months ago I got diagnosed with ball cancer. After the treatment, I today got the all clear. Best day of my life and in a joyous turn of events I have been drinking to celebrate with my missus on a random thursday afternoonn. The last couple of months have been horrendous. This forum (not just this thread) helped me get through a very difficult time. Sometimes there is nothing better to keep your mind on track than worrying that perhaps a man from burnley you think is the next bobby moore (see what i did there) may have a while to go before he is the finished article (though I think he will be). Either way things have been pretty dark for me lately but thankfully I have come through and life is now brighter than it could ever have been before this. I just wanted to say I have no wisdom I can share but I do have experience of getting through a tough time so if anyone feels they need a chat or someone to rant at about how life can deal you a difficult hand then please do not hesitate to contact me. If nothing else I will be happy to explain how Keane will turn out to be a top centre back in time. And I dont want to be condesending or patronising but I would just say, its crap walking away from beautiful Goodison after watching a toffees defeat but my god, being there to bitch about it to your dad/kid/missus/mate is a joy in itself and is a moment/memory to enjoy, even if its in hindsight because it sure as hell beats the alternative of not being there.
