The little boy that died on Wednesday was in year 6 at my eldest's school. Terrible, terrible news, I feel so sorry for his parents and family. The headteacher went class to class to tell the kids yesterday morning and they're getting some councillors in for those that need to talk, my kid is in reception so only just turned 5. I've spoken to him about it, he doesn't really understand it. He said he was knocked off his bike and is now an angel in heaven, but then said he'd come back later. How do you explain it in a manor they'll be able to process it?!?

No idea how you explain it, just too young to fully take it in I guess.

Absolutely tragic news, having a son the same school year as the poor lad really brings it home. And I don't even know them.

Poor dad and brother (and family), they didn't do anything that most of us wouldn't. Just cycling home with your son. Yet I can't see how you wouldn't blame yourself even though there is no blame.

At that age, you don't. I think your boy has it right, he doesn't need to know more.

When the news first broke there was no mention of age, it was just "cyclist" and "fatal accident". The cynic in me knew that where the accident occurred was at the end of a downhill Strava segment and thought that could've had something to do with it, whereas the reality is it's much more tragic than that.

People whose heads don't properly sit above the top of their steering wheels, making them look like some demented driving Chad.

Ban them from the roads, it will reduce congestion.

I know it's been done to death how the adver comments section attracts the most demented of all STFC's intellectually vacuous fucksponges but they still manage to excel themselves every now and then

There are a few moronic individuals posting on here who have more money than sense and are unable to see the utter contempt that STFC dish out to the fans and to a certain extent the local media.The pricing of the tickets is extortionate-at what ever level.I for one am glad to see the back of the Antipodean and the fat Iraqi.Full of their own self importance and bigged up by the agents as the best thing since sliced bread.Still-STFC are about to mug another club and off-load something that is patently not worth the asking price

Fair play to Duke for even responding to some of the comments on that Kasim article.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say not all of those comments are completely serious.

I blame KR

I'd believe that 90% of them were sarcastic if I didn't sit next to so many people spouting similar bollocks at the CG so regularly

Who was the agreement with? Should be able to find your details with surname and/or TV serial number.

Well they should help you then. If they don't, I'd go straight to the manufacturer.

Which make and model is it? My Samsung seems ok, but I have the 4k one.

Ps. A bank statement is sufficient evidence.
