That's enough (2 Viewers)

I have spent half my life in Asia and came back to be near my parents as they got old. My mum and dad are still with us but my dad has dimentia and my mum has had 5 hip replacements during the past 3 years. I try to come up and see them and go to the football with my dad as my mum listens on the radio.
For God sake my mum was never a football fan but as she has 5 grandsons who adore it she wanted a relationship with them so she became passionate about CCFC. When Iwas in Asia it kept us together because we always had something to talk about.
My dad, a season ticket holder for over40 years can't go without support. Mymum still listens but it's with fading memories that she does so. I love my parents and family but I really can't take the negativity that has existed around the club for the past 10years.
It's with a heavy heart that I won't be renewing my season ticket.
People will say 'stop being a drama queen' but I take great exception Ms. Sepela calls herself a Christian, yet, maybe ignorantly, destroyed a community's enjoyment through pure greed.
While I was in Asia I worked for a few charities teaching poor kids in the Philipines, building schools in Thailand and working in university in Japan, and the work was through my belief for my God and respect for people who follow other Gods.
Today we sold a player for less than six figures yet he was possibly the biggest asset we still have. Is that how we have become? Selling anything with the slightest value?
Either Joy S is ignorant of what goes on at the club or she has the heart and mind of Hitler who bombed our fair city. YES, I make no apology with the reference, and she can do what she wants to me legally but she is a Hitler wannabe, honestly.
I can no longer come to the city and take my dad. MMy mum has lost her memories of the time spent with her grandkids. People will say 'move on', but why?
The club I love no longer exists in my world. I have enjoyed my friendships and banter with people but I have to say 'I've had enough'

GOD BLESS

We are now playing a lot of the lads who came through the academy which surely is a good thing and should be the way the club does things in the future. We have some great youngsters coming through and is a huge positive

Say what you want about Adolf, but he wasn't selling defensive midfielders to the Allies just before a battle so if anything Joy's worse than a man who decimated a continent and saw millions dead

You wouldn't catch him playing jungle music at 3 in the morning either

Fair play for having the Gonads to post this . [being met with the usual moronic replies] I think there are many who now feel this way . totally disillusioned .

Curiosity has got the better of me. How do you have 5 hip replacements in 3 years, aren't they supposed to last for decades?

Although one of the more successful major operations there is a risk that the op goes wrong, that there is infection or the bone splits (older you get then bone thins and weakens). There is a 5% risk of dislocation apparently. My mother in law has had hers 8 years (both hips) and dislocated three times - but to be honest that's more about her age and other physical problems that means she hasn't the muscle density.

Had my left hip replaced in March - had been a very steady decline for 5 years with a collapse of the hip in the final 3 months. I have gone from only doing 2000 painful steps in a day to being able to hit 20000 pretty well pain free four months later. Yes there are aches and pains, largely from the rest of the body getting used to the new hip and a new way of walking. The biggest thing has been the pain is no longer there, and that means I am more active and according to Mrs OSB not such a "grumpy git" (her words not mine). You don't realise how painful it is until they take the pain away. Has been a very positive experience, and that's how I approached it from the start. Get the other hip done later this year

I was told that the newer type of hips (ceramic ball & cup) are expected to last around 20 years plus. Everyone thinks it is a problem associated with age but on the day I was assessed by the surgeon I was by some distance the oldest on his list.

Anyway keep your head up Asiaskyblue, I can understand the CCFC frustrations but don't give up even if it is from afar. I hope things go as best they can for your parents.
All the best
