Ulitzer95 12,576 Posted April 8, 2020 The person posting these updates is requesting space and privacy yet seems to be sensationalising it themselves. Their post yesterday made it sound like something was gravely wrong (like terminal cancer, coma etc.). Now we're being told he's undergoing tests and he was on the phone having a chit chat earlier? They would've been just as well keeping it to themselves and not posting anything online at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I agree with this or wait until they have the results of whatever tests he is having and release whatever information they have then about his health, agree they seemed to make it sound last night as if he had hours left to live was expecting an announcement today to say he had died. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perhaps 1,423 Posted April 8, 2020 This so-called friend of 20 years seems to be relishing in this to generate interaction for his page. Something about his language doesn’t sit right with me, especially “watch this space”... Spurs announced it before it was released on this page so something tells me he isn’t the most informed person currently. “No news is good news” ... surely not if he’s hospitalised? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exu 250 Posted April 8, 2020 He is Englands greatest goalscorer though ( in my humble opinion ) so that bit of the post is correct. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted April 10, 2020 It's a bit of a mystery why they made this big announcement of his hospitalisation because he doesn't seem to have that much wrong with him ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
