I get that statistic thrown at me quite often Eggs, and I guess when you compare the amount of cars on the road, to the number of planes in the Sky, then you’re going to have more car fatalities.
I can’t think of many things more horrifying though than sitting on a plane knowing it’s in major trouble, looking out the window and seeing it hurtling towards the ocean, and having a window of around 5-10 minutes to come to terms that you’re about to die.
It’s thoughts like that that will stop me ever boarding a plane. Strangely enough, I don’t get that sense of dread when I get in my car to nip to the local shop to pick up my morning paper..
Anyway as you rightly say, completely off topic. IF this match goes ahead, a point would be terrific business. A win obviously is what we’re all wanting, but a point at Old Trafford will keep the little run ticking along and prolonging the current feel good factor.
