7 year old boy challenges court ruling
A seven-year-old boy was at the centre of a London courtroom drama today when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.
The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.
The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.
After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, whom the boy firmly believes are incapable of beating anyone

Lameduck asked me why I wasn't watching the match last night? I told him I was going to watch the highlights instead as it would be a much shorter ordeal. :doh:

'Spose you'll be watching tonights effort on DVD, with all the interviews, slowmo's, addedvalue crip etc.
'Ner mind, well done Spurs.
Always though 'Arry deserved a crack with a 'big' club, pleased he's making a fist of it. :)
I never really subscribed to the 'changing the manager changes the way the same players perform' logic - but how do you explain this?
Spurs are transformed. The fitness levels are Ramos' legacy but the commitment and belief are obviously down to 'Arry. I reckon Gomes is beyond the reach of his powers though :sideways:

Perhaps the knock on his head will help. It couldnt make him worse :blink:
