Mike, I know how you feel.....in 1995, my mother went to a hospital in Vancouver for an angiogram.....she had a fatal heart attack during the test. It's taken a long time to get over it.....but Mom will never be forgotten. While I'm not a Jew, I do have a deep feeling to our Old Testament. And, I thank you for adding so much to our beloved Leeds United site. Your insight does add much to our lives beyond football....please keep at it!

My forte has always been sports broadcasting in Canada.....I managed to lose my Yorkshire accent in order to give Canadians a local perspective to the game, especially when the Vancouver Whitecaps were in the North American Soccer League in the 70-80's. While Major League Soccer appears to be working well over here, I can still see there is much to be learned.....putting a firecracker up a certain rear end at times would help. I'm retired now and enjoying playing golf and following "our" game worldwide.....more importantly, LU!

Cheers

John

I lost my Mother this year. Now we are doing the stone setting, finally selling her house and the probate process is at a virtual end. But I still have this nagging empty feeling that something irreplaceable has gone. Having Mum around for so long has made her an immutable feature. No matter how far we got in all senses of the word we got we were still her boys. Not getting her card with the five pound cheque just took the color out of it all. Yesterday evening I told you we set up the joint Muslim- Jew girls football team. What I didn't say is that its in the name of my Mother. My Mum's Hebrew name was Zippora. The wife of Moses. Zippora's father was Jethro, Moses's Councillor in his darkest hours [ running a bunch of raving lunatics that make up the Jewish people he had quite a few]. The portion of the Bible relating to us getting the ten commandments is in Jethro's name. Jethro & Zippora were Middanites -- not Jews at all.
So that made it very auspicious -- hopefully.

                Thanks
                My present was this:
                I reformed the team of Muslim & Jewish girls.
                Having learned from last year I hope I have overcome
                the hurdles.
                I do know politics & I shafted the main objections
                tonight [

            unfortunately

                not on ideological grounds but an ego thing] I just
                hope I have lined my
                ducks up right. If not I've got enough 'dry powder' to
                fight back.
                I play 'politics' on the two out of three principle,
                In other words

            demand

                three gains to give up on one and make out your
                magnanimous. .
                Tonight I made three demands & provisionally got them
                all. I can safely
                'give up on ' any one from two.
                I must confess I love the game. And it made my day.

                The first reports about our Sheikh are disconcerting,
                The plus side of

            his

                horse fancying is maybe we can get Michael Owen.

                Thanks again

                Michael
