FFS. can i telephone my work place and tell them my pet has died and I need time off work- no. Dont care he's a Tottenham player, get a grip, life can be shite at times-we all have to get on with it. Every one on here needs to stop this empty empathy crap.He needs to get back playing, he may find it easier to cope with all this nonsense.
Sorry to be so harsh, i cant accept all this namby-pamby crap.
Y'know a 'pet' is a living thing doncha?
Just 'cos it can't talk or hold down a job or cook dinner, doesn't mean it's not part of a family!
Honestly, there are some PEOPLE I'd miss less if they died than some of the pets I've had!
