I find it’s best to wear shoes when you’re being measured mate
It reduces your BMI as well. Wear platforms when they measure your height, take them off when they measure your weight, it adds years to your life expectancy.

55 BMI or 55 life expectancy? Or both?

I think this is the latest;
- he signed a 4 year deal with us weeks ago
- he bought a house in Essex and signed for West Ham
- he’s split up with his girlfriend which means he’s definitely not staying
- he’s signing a new deal with us next week
- he’s not signing a new contract with us next week
- he’s on holiday in Ibiza which means he’s definitely leaving

I think I read that the players will report back a week tomorrow, so if we’ve not heard about him staying by then, I would suggest it then becomes very unlikely.

Pretty sure the club announced the lads would be back 30th June.
Which I think is when his contract expires.
So we will know quickly either way what’s happening with him

Just realised we are only a week away from the players returning for pre-season.

Our players reporting back for the new season, yet some clubs still playing in the club World Cup and they will be the ones complaining about being tired and doing away with cup replays

DSR ; they are wise to the platform heels now, and always ask you to remove your shoes when being measured, but I get round it by wearing a top hat.
