Bad beat/Moaning/Venting thread - Mammy told me not to come.

So after an emergency trip to A&E Saturday night... a 2 hour wait to see triage nurse.. and another 2 to get to a paediatric doctor... it appears our little bundle of puke and poop has cow milk protein allergy and requires formula that is basically 5x more expensive than off the shelf SMA. Literal only saving grace is it's a prescription milk so DPS will limit the pain.

[elbows]

Elbows or anyone else that knows.

6 of us golfing for a week in Albufeira in May. What are the best courses of all the Villamoura ones or is there any hidden gems you know of within an hour?

Not sure as I haven’t been there since I was a kid.

A mate of mine said Quinta South and Laranjal are good.

I played a place called Islantilla which is just across the Spanish border along the coast. It used to hold a European tour event and is one of the toughest courses I ever played. It’s been over 20 years since I played it though

[dobby]

Or maybe she wants a rapist brought to justice , so he can't rape again.

She's suing him and wants the previous confidentiality agreement voided. I'd say it's more about the money for her tbh.

Can't you use Soya? We used it for our lactose intolerant kid. Wysoy. 11quid.

Not suitable under 6 months and as it's more to do with complex proteins soya is as likely to cause problems.

Oh dear. Ours has the breast milk then moved on to Soya. If he even eats a yoghurt now his little arse gets the runs.

Luckily there is a high chance she'll grow out of this by 1st birthday and an almosy certainty by the time she starts school! We're going to have an awful lot of outpatient appointments over the next 12 months I think.

On the subject of Mickleson and punting. My source tells me the deal is this:

50% of all income goes to the family trust
25% goes to 'Amy and the kids'
Phil punts the remaining 25% (his preferred vehicle is the NFL)

Most married men can probably relate.

[eamonhonda]

Thats the horrible attitude that makes it so difficult for women to come forward, and possibly part of the reason she took so long.

If she came forward at the start instead of accepting a payoff I wouldn't be so sceptical.

Well she was raped.

No matter what her motive is now, it doesn't excuse what he did.

Allegedly.

And she made a decision to take a payoff instead of reporting it.

People turn into proper droolers when it comes to football, this situation won't be any different.

There's not much more I can say when you insist on focusing on the alleged victim more than the alleged dirty bastard rapist.

I 100% agree. Not trying to defend it at all.

[dobby]

Is it not supposed to be innocent until proven guilty? Or are we just supposed to believe every woman that ever says she's been assaulted?

This will be like the Paddy Jackson case, those lads are also guilty as hell but I doubt the Ronaldo case will see the inside of a courtroom.

[dobby]

Yes we should believe them until we know otherwise, and be respectful under the assumption she is telling the truth while proving or disproving her claim.

That's a pretty dangerous road to go down regardless of who the complaint is made against. Celeb or regular Joe soap.

100%

100%, but that doesn't mean you have to attack the accuser and call her money grubbing and someone who will be happy with a bitta money just because the accused played for your chosen sports franchise

I've already said yesterday some time I don't care who the accused is. And I'm not attacking her. I thought we were discussing a case. Just calling it as how it looks

[Solksjaer!]

HJ has already convicted him. Kayroo has him flagged as guilty too based on apparent Documented evidence. Scumbag if he did it but lets see what the courts do/say.


Suprised at EL Shambles franchise comment. Dobby seems the least likely man utd fan to be swayed by that.

[bp_me]

A bit over 2 weeks.

Breast feeding is as likely to present the issue unless herself goes to some fairly extreme lengths with her diet. Secondary issue being milk appears to be mostly suppressed already now.

In which case what does her motivation matter?

[dobby]

In which case what does her motivation matter?

It doesn't. It's just part of the topic that should be addressed imo. What Honda suggested of just straight up believing all women are telling the truth and all men are guilty is a dangerous precedent to set.

[eamonhonda]

Believe them and trust them, the look fully into it obviously. Don't attack her while it's ongoing

Let's park Honda's argument for a moment. You cannot say that her motivation is not relevant and then say it is relevant as a part of the discussion.

So, assuming you do believe her motivation is relevant - why do you believe that?

[dobby]

Does it matter what I think? Nope. But she's already quit her job, has already taken one payout and is currently looking to sue him. So I'd say financial motivation is high up on her list of priorities.

[dobby]

Haven't attacked her once. What do you even mean by attack her?

Pretty much the same as me saying you shouldn't call the accused a dirty bastard rapist. Should the accused person be "attacked" while it's ongoing?

[Strewelpeter]

I'd say financial motivation is high up on her list of priorities.

saying soneone has a financial motive for accusing a person of rape is a fairly savage attack IMO

[dobby]

Thats not an attack and I'm not just saying it, it's a fact. She's already taken a payment.

[Solksjaer!]

Tough world we live in. I assumed you'd ventured out in it. Ronaldo looks guilty . Send him to jail if found so. Why sue ? You really think she's doing it so he won't offend again. In my personal and savage view she is looking for compensation. I would too , for every penny if I could get. Now let's see the real evidence in court. If they were looking just to jail him why advertise these docs. Surely they
Influence the jury pre-trial and damage the chance of a fair trial. Why not wait for court ?

[Kayroo]

Even if this is true, why does it matter?

[dobby]

Even if this is true, why does it matter?

It's fairly central to the situation. They have all this evidence against him, you even said yourself it's more or less a slam dunk. So if she just wants justice, why take the money back then and now try to get some more by suing. I dunno how these things work thankfully but surely upon conviction she'd likely get some form of compensation?

[cardshark202]

I've a buddy going to Buenos Aires in a few weeks, wondeing about places to stay?! Areas to go? Places to eat? Going with his missus. Budget be fairly reasonable Id imagine.

I'm here.

How long is he going for?

As for where to stay, I wouldn't be up on the best hotels or anything but in terms of areas, I would probably pick somewhere like Palermo. It's got a lot more tourists but also one of the safer spots. And not too far a journey to almost anywhere in the city.

Places to see - it would depend on how long they are there for, I think.

As for food:

Steak:

• Don Julio - Always a solid choice. Particularly liked the Rib eye there.
• El Mirasol - The mollejas (cow thyroid) are particularly excellent here.

Tasting Menu: El Baqueano - Always one of my favourite places. Excellent tasting menu and great service.

Other(My personal favourite):
Sarkis - Armenian Restaurant with sensational Middle Eastern cuisine.



To be honest though, it's been a couple of years since I was back there, so maybe things have changed a little.

[Solksjaer!]

Even if this is true, why does it matter?

Let's say for arguments sake it's proven in court she was a high class exclusive hooker . Does it effect your viewpoint? Could she have been trying to trap him ? We don't know the full story
. You know more than me obviously but I reserve my judgement until ALL the details are investigated. I read the reports and made me shudder so I'm not adverse to the book being thrown at him but only through the criminal courts not the internet. As it stands he is innocent and she an escort of sorts the accused. Motive matters . I'm surprised you eliminate it so readily.

[Kayroo]

Why does her motive matter?? Either he raped her or he didn’t. Right? Either he committed a heinous crime or he didn’t.

Or are you suggesting that the crime isn’t as bad if her coming forward now is partially or primarily motivated by personal gain?

[Mellor]

Lads I think you are getting bogged down in the motivation argument.
Dobby obviously believes that the financial motivation plays a part. Repeatedly asking "Why does her motive matter?" in different forms isn't going to suddenly change anything.

I'd come at it from a much different angle.

If she came forward at the start instead of accepting a payoff I wouldn't be so sceptical.

Allegedly.
And she made a decision to take a payoff instead of reporting it.

I'm not just saying it, it's a fact. She's already taken a payment.

Dobby, Why do you think he offered her a payoff? What do you think happened that made him feel the need to put hush money on the table?
Bear in mind, he definitely paid her off. It's a fact, as you said.

He paid her off because he was accused of rape m8. Have you not read the story.

They have been buying back shares for years, as the price increased - it clearly isn’t market manipulation it’s just good sense. It gives comfort to existing shareholders that you’re confident in the outlook for the business.

It is my understanding we are a little bit beyond accusations?
The Der Spiegel reporting seems to be rock-solid, top quality journalism that has actual documentation rather than simply repeating an allegation. It's also pretty clear that beyond sputtering indignation, his spokespeople have offered no real refutation on any points of fact

[DeadParrot]

WASHINGTON (AP) — The EPA is pursuing rule changes that experts say would weaken the way radiation exposure is regulated, turning to scientific outliers who argue that a bit of radiation damage is actually good for you — like a little bit of sunlight.

The government’s current, decades-old guidance says that any exposure to harmful radiation is a cancer risk. And critics say the proposed change could lead to higher levels of exposure for workers at nuclear installations and oil and gas drilling sites, medical workers doing X-rays and CT scans, people living next to Superfund sites and any members of the public who one day might find themselves exposed to a radiation release.
