    Absolutely. Heartfelt condolences to the families of all concerned.

    Also, my Niece had her game on Saturday, her team won 3-1, she didn't score but she set up the last one. She enjoyed it for the most part, although she does have a bruise on her left leg after an opponent hit her with her stick by accident LOL. Outside of that she also did a dance thing on Sunday where she had to do two dances, the first one being a ballet type and the other one being a fast freestyle thing. She did well, even though she herself noted that she made a few errors on the fast one.

    Overall, she had a great (and busy) weekend.
    Oh bloody hell yeah, God I hate international breaks . I haven't got the willpower to sit through an international football match. Might have to dig out some DVD's. I can also catch up on Agents Of Shield and Legion as well I suppose.

    I'm glad your niece's weekend went well.

    I dunno. It's another weekend Swansea are guaranteed to be out of the relegation zone, so I don't mind it as much lol.

    Hmm. Can't blame him really. I'd rather him stay obviously but I think if we get offers of around £20m in the summer, we'll sell. If Everton do sell Barkley, I can see Siggy ending up there.

    You should read Black Hammer from Dark Horse Comics.

    A shame really. In this hyper inflated market, he is worth so much more to the Jacks.

    Yeah he's by far our most important player. We'll need some serious investment in the team in the summer if he goes and we stay up.

    I'm reading Black Hammer too. It's very good. Not wanting to spoil any of it, but it's about a group of super heroes who have somehow ended up in an alternate universe/reality and are living on a farm and are having to hide their powers. Some of them want to find a way back home. So far 7 issues and an annual have been released (I haven't read issue #7 yet), so there's not a huge amount to catch up on.

    Sounds awesome. I might buy an image TPB each week and was debating whether to start with "Kill or be killed", but I shall explore this....

    + You do. Borjan (?) has been a flop.

    Kill or Be Killed is very good too. I love Sean Phillips' art so I spend ages just staring at pages when I read it lol.

    Borja has been a huge flop. I think he cost us £16m as well. He wasn't a Clement signing, and since Clement took over, his signings have been really good, so hopefully in the summer our recruitment will be better.

    I'll check it out! + Woo. That was a lot of money. Llorente has been good!
