Is he going there because of Brexit?

[ClaretTony]

I saw something last night about Dean but couldn't make head or tail of it. I've never seen Love Island - looks like something to stay away from.

Is that the same Dean who broke his leg at the Milk Cup?

[edison]

Or was that another kid

Is that the same Dean who broke his leg at the Milk Cup?

Yes, the same Dean. He's Vince & Alison's youngest son.

I'd just looked it up in the Youth Foundation accounts, when we paid the money to the club for the trip, and yes it was 2009.

I think only Hewitt ended up playing for the first team, and he was taken from one of the younger age groups to make up that squad

The age limits in the Milk Cup were different to ours which meant some of the players weren't able to play so some younger lads went. Hewitt must have only been about 15 at the time.

[edison]

Yes, 3 of the older boys traveled but couldn't play - King was one of those 3.

[edison]

Some highly intelligent folk I know watch it, as it allows them to **** themsleves laughing. A bit of escapist fun like Big Brother once was to people

Hi girls, they used to call my dad BIG Vince in the day, like father like son.
Is that how it goes on the sunny version of University Challenge ?

It's all a bit too late now CT.

Know him fairly well through football, I admit he loves himself but he’s a nice lad. Good luck to him, if someone’s prepared to pay you for looking good why not take advantage?
