I’d like to hear a few other viewpoints on this. I still have a nagging feeling that the initial throat cancer would mean he’s ‘active’ and then once the secondary cancer strikes then the linesman’s flag should go up because of the initial cancer. I think it’s akin to a striker standing a yard offside while his colleague has a shot and then hammering the ball home from a rebound after the 'keeper spills the first shot. There’s a definite advantage there due to the earlier illness (standing offside) and when he eventually slips home the rebound (dies) that should count him out.
Are we agreed that Maddie McCann is not a celebrity?
I’m replacing Sir Alex Ferguson with Bob Holness of Blockbusters fame. I also thoroughly enjoyed Bob presenting Call My Bluff in the company of team captains Sandi Toksvig and the late, and dearly missed, Alan Coren.
The fact she’s in a coma would suggest she’s suffering from some kind of illness. If she overdosed and died straight away and you had her in the sweep before then I’d say fair shout. But to try add her to your list when she’s already in this state is simply opportunistic. This request is dismissed. I’m changing from Bob Holness to Paul McGrath now by the way.
Here Bandage I wasnt seriously trying to make her my selection, obviously there is a pre existing condition there. I just thought I’d throw the name up with a stupid joke along with it.
