We lost our beloved Boxer a good few years ago a week before his 13th birthday.
He was the very best of dogs. Great with my first born, never once got agitated when she used to ram him with her walker.
Cancer in the front leg got him. We X-rayed him once a month until the vet said the leg is too weak now it will snap. The decision was made and we walked him into the vets with his tail wagging away.
He sat in my lap while the deed was done. I cried a lot but he fell asleep with the dignity he deserved.
We are so lucky to have pets. Unconditional love. Every house should have one (as long as you treat them right!)
I'll keep with my view for the whole of last season.
I do not see what the infatuation is with this kid.
He cannot trap a bag of cement and has zero footballing intelligence.
How many time last season was he through on goal yet a heavy touch turns it into a 50/50 with the keeper or a back pass. And don't get me started on how many times he was caught offside if wide positions when he can see the entire oppo's back line.
Never took an interest in his youth and U23 record but ill hedge my bets by saying he used his strength like a flat track bully to out muscle defenders and bag a hatful of goals.
Any experienced defender alla Steve Cook will have seen a hundred Armstrong's and dealt with them comfortably.
I wish no bad on the kid. I hope he proves me wrong (like Eze who I thought was a lazy so and so!) and goes on to play Prem football...... I just can't see it.
I spent Sunday with a member of Readings first team squad.
When they were relegated a lot of the players did not have relegation clauses in their contracts.
A large number of them have been asked to walk away from their contracts with no settlement agreement. So basically walking away from £££££.
As you can imagine everyone of them has said no and told the club they will sit on their contracts until they expire or until they find a suitable move to another club.
