    Dwight Yorke stopped from becoming a manager.

    "... and lacking experience" - the relevant bit, I would have thought.

    Do you answer all calls to your mobile or selective?

    When I was on the transplant list I had to answer everything as "the call" could come at any time, and I wouldn't know the number it was calling from. I shall have that pleasure again in a couple of years.

    Premier League

    I thought maybe it was me. A couple of years ago I could watch most games - I enjoyed watching the likes of Southampton, Stoke, and yes, even Palace, but this season particularly there are very few matches I care about. Just look at today's offering Boro/Watford and Saints/Burnley - couldn't...

    WOLVES - decent .....!!

    Yup, thought they looked pretty good last night, particularly in the second half - really should have won. No easy job on Tues.

    Where are your savings kept?

    Thanks. Yes, you see very little difference at first, but you do eventually, then the balance start to go down faster and faster. I appreciate not everyone is in a position to do it though.

    Where are your savings kept?

    When I was earning, I overpaid on my mortgage every month until it was paid off - yes, it took a few years, but I consider it the best thing to have done, so I own my house. Once it was paid off, I became a social pariah and bought another property to let, though I did try to keep the rent down...

    Samsung

    Not really a commercial decision, more of a time-shortage one at the moment, but if I get the chance in a few months I probably will do it.

    Samsung

    According to last years UK figures, Android usage was up slightly from 51% to 53% and iOS was down by about the same to 35%. I suspect US iOS figures may be higher, but I don't know. I write apps for a living, but only Android. at the mo, no plans to do iOS but maybe.

    List the things you've put off doing for the last 7 (seven) years.

    Hmm, life kinda changed quite radically. 7 years ago I worked in the city, well paid, long hours, didn't see too much of home or have time to do owt else. Then, I got bowel cancer and kidney failure, took voluntary redundancy, so now I'm home all the time, kidney dialysis 3 hours a day - so...

    The Southern Health Trust

    Unfortunately probably true. Not defending her at all, but I'm guessing she'll never work again given her very public background.

    When was the last time you watched a DVD?

    I bought a Blu-Ray about 3 years ago and have used it, maybe 4 times. I was given a DVD of Theory of Everything last xmas, and I had to dig out the speakers in order to watch it. I have a pile of DVDs just sitting there

    Don't know ... don't care.

    [Misc] Drinking tea in the evening

    I am allowed 2 mugs of tea a day, usually taken at 15:10 and 18:30. That's the problem of having no kidneys !

    O/T Kim Kardashian held at gunpoint in Paris.

    I had no idea who it was either - from the name I didn't know whether it was male or female. The only bell that Kardashian rang was the name of a lawyer that worked on the defence for OJ Simpson, and I only know that because I caught a bit of the appallingly bad recent drama about the case.

    O/T Kim Kardashian held at gunpoint in Paris.

    Never heard of her, and if we're talking "celebs" - I don't want to know..

    Friday Night Drinking Thread

    While you're supping up, spare a thought for those of us - well, me really - who have no kidneys. Long gone are the days when I could drink what I want, nothing for me any more, boo-hoo.

    Next England Boss - The Poll

    None of which matters at international level. You don't get to coach much, all you need to do is pick the right players, in form and briefly organise them - oh, and don't let them near any dentist chairs.

    If Carlsberg Did Donor Cards

    No - it just isn't in the slightest.

    If Carlsberg Did Donor Cards

    Really ? As someone who is on the transplant list I think it's quite offensive. If you think which team you support is more important than life or death then you really need a reality check.

    Calais Jungle. Legal situation.

    I doubt they had any choice with open borders. They should, of course, have been stopped, held and processed in the first EU country that they arrived in.
