Thanks CH and sorry to hear about your degeneration in the eyes. As you know I also suffer from Macula, and recently had a relapse, though thankfully not both eyes. I've lived with it since 2008 when I was 53, one of the youngest to be diagnosed with it. Almost inevitable then that I will lose sight in the afflicted eye but I just fear about the other. Be positive though mate; treatments are progressing and new drugs/delivery coming that will help us. Also CH, there are fantastic AMD support groups, where you can meet others with the very same condition. Well worth contacting in your area mate.
Forgive me for asking, but why can't you go to the Boleyn ever again? I'd like to get you there ( there are ways n means) and we can have a good old chat about footy and Macula.

Good luck with the surgery ch, chin up mate!
Just a thought and feel free to pm if you don't want to discuss on here but does your condition not warrant a disability badge?
I'm not clued up on that kind of thing but i think if you had one you could get cheap tickers to our games and a free one a carer to bring you (one of your sons)

Thanks so much for the round-up mate.

With regards to your eyes, I really am lost for words over and above what has already been said. I just hope the surgery goes well.

All the best,

Steve.

I'm really sorry to hear about this set-back. I wish you all the best for the surgery CH and I 'm hoping that you will finally get some good news, you more than almost anyone deserve it.

Reckon we may have dodged a bullet in being stopped from buying the stadium. They can't moan that we aren't paying for the work when we don't own the property.

It's unheard of for me to be annoyed on behalf of another club never mind the bindippers but I thought that was particularly graceless of Kjaer to say he chose Fenerbahce over them beecause he wanted to win trophies - perhaps he should have joined Celtic if that is his only measure of success?

Sorry to hear about your set back with your eye, hopefully the surgery will be successful and your dreams of one more game at Upton Park wont fade and die.

Thanks for your great work on here every day but as others have said put your own health first
