Can a dose of the crabs be healthy? (asking for a friend)

All Depends on the type of crab you get. If you get the type from the seafood stall at the end of petticoat lane then it’s fine.

The type I wish on the syrup wearing helmet is the type that can be caught at The Griffin on clerkenwell road.

Sad news just breaking, Jose Antonio Reyes has been killed in a car crash aged 35.

RIP.

That's terrible.

RIP Jose Antonio. So sad.

RIP Reyes

I was in the north bank when he scored that winner againest Middlesbrough down the other end. Will always remain one of my favourite goals

Awful news. So young.

That is very, very sad news.

There was a time, when he first arrived, that I thought he was on par with Ronaldo and could go on to achieve great things with us as the next big thing after Henry.

Henry never seemed to take to him for some reason and it just never worked out.

My heart goes out to his family. RIP

He was a very enjoyable player to watch. Top skills and a willingness to do the defensive part of the game. I always regretted he left our club too soon.

He leaves behind three children. My heart goes out to them, all the family, but especially them. Just tragic.

Worth reading what Henry has said about him.

RIP Antonio. Classy player.

Godamn can our end of season get any sh***ty ..... what a quality player , pure class . RIP Jose .

I just remember those stares he used to give Reyes when he didn't give him the ball or misplaced a pass. It was all a little odd. Maybe there was nothing in it.

RIP. Very sad to hear this news.

Reyes was far better than the current shite that calls themselves Arsenal players. RIP JAR

Actually cant believe it.
Jose Antonio Reyes RIP
Will never forget the excitement when we signed him.
He made a slow start and the total joy for him when he scored those 2 crackers v chelsea. His first goals for us.
Exciting great player.
Only 35
Tragic

That's because he was on a par with Ronaldo in those early days. Of course, Ronaldo's development was stratospheric but in terms of sheer talent Reyes was right up there at a very high level. I don't think he had the personality to maximise that talent but when on sing he was a glorious footballer. There is the story of one his first games for Sevilla against Madrid and Zidane came off the pitch wanting to know who this kid was.

Desperately sad new. He was a favourite of mine. Saw him once with his entourage of attractive women shopping in Bluewater. He had the world at his feet for a fleeting moment.

Stan Kroenke sitting out the trip to Baku sums things up nicely. I know Josh was there last night, but this was Arsenal’s biggest game in a decade. Would it have made a difference, no. But you still make the effort. An absent owner in every way.

This was from Charlie Watts 2 days ago, stating Josh K was in Baku. I know there were some doubts.

Dreadful news. I feel so sorry for his family. I must be getting old and emotional because this news has really upset me.

Yes, I remember those stares. It was probably all part of making it clear to young Jose that he needed to be 100% to play in that great side, and mostly he did perform like a champion. Henry was equally hard on himself when he made mistakes, not that he often did. Talking of errors, I recall Dennis shooting over once by about twenty yards and the brilliant Highbury crowd within seconds singing "What the *%^@*** hell was that?".

It is always hard to see a young man die, especially if like Reyes, he made football a pleasure. Not wishing to get morbid, but in 2001 the death of the talented Niccolo Galli at just 17 years of age got to me. An exceptional defender in our Youth Cup winning team, with the world at his feet. He was just a couple of years older than my son, which probably made it hit the emotional mark.

OMOH, did you see that Alan Skirton died on 11th May? He was before my time, but you presumably saw him. He was 80 when he died.

Awful news about Reyes. Far too young.

Agree with those who said there was a moment with us when he looked like he could eclipse virtually any player in the prem. I think it was the start of the 04/05 season he was absolutely unplayable. Pace, dribbling, incisive and a magic left foot. What we wouldn’t give for a player of his quality on our left wing now. Strangely Reyes played for us in the days where the 4-4-2 was widely used, if he’d peaked during the times of the 4-3-3 I think he was perfect for either wide forward position.

I remember his rocket v Chelsea, that goal v Boro, the winner v spurs the day before I did a tour of Highbury and Charlie George was raving about him.

Heard there will be a minute silence before the champions league final tonight. Very very sad

Obviously want Liverpool to win tonight. Can’t decide how I want them to win.
A) 7-0 to totally humiliate spurs and make them want to never talk of even reaching the final ever again
B) 2-1 with 2 stoppage time goals from the Ox to snatch it from them at the last moment

I think it had to be A)

One shouldn't tempt fate by being too fussy

Most mediocre is not the same as worst. I seem to remember this debate ...

No contest. It's option A every time.

That’s not even a *%^@*** question. Are you sick ?

This is a David Lynch film m*%^@**%^@r


90 minutes away from a bottle of whisky, a hot bath, a Radiohead LP and a razor blade

Ha ha. Penalty in first minute

Oh yes!!!!!!

Wonderful

Blow the whistle ref !!

I think the Spuds have made a mistake not finding room for Moura.

Bonkers decision

Scousers offering nothing but their penalty

No way Kane should be starting this game. Surprised they started Winks as well. Not heard his name once so far.

Spurs best chance was to sit deep and counter using son and moura’s pace

Boring game so far ZZZZ
