 I hear Jorge Mendes has  a couple of doctors lined up for Chelsea- should we put in a bid for Eva?

I wouldn't mind putting my own bid in.

Does she do domiciles?

My mother's in there, if it's the one in Little Aston, all paid for by the NHS. Funny how the government don't have money for hospital beds but have money to pay a private hotel hospital.

Sorry to hear that Mark. even the better places are best avoided. Hope she is well again soon.

It's actually cheaper to put elective patients through a private hospital than an nhs one in many cases. I hope your mom's okay in any case...

Yeah not wanting to get all political, but I do despair at the rather simplistic cries of 'privatising' the NHS. My wife and I are going through IVF. It wouldn't make the remotest bit of sense for the public sector to actually carry out the Medical work.

Good luck.

Depends on the number of attempts, I think 1 on the NHS is fair enough because that way all the checks for suitability, etc are done without any cost.  If you then decide to keep trying you have all the screenings, scans, etc to take with you to a private clinic.  The only thing I'd be against being done on the NHS is genuine vanity based cosmetic surgery, I wish they'd bring Dentistry into it completely as well, it seems wrong to ignore something as fundamental as teeth in 'free' healthcare.

Not sure what this has to do with Adama Traore transfers though, but good luck.

Back on transfers, as exciting as all of this is and has been I wonder what it would have looked like had Delph and Benteke not left? Who would we have still bought? Because while it still needs to play out we look much better for their departure as much as nobody wants to lose their best players.

Charlie Austin is going to discuss a new contract with QPR.

He should take a leaf out of TFLP's book and insert a stupidly-low release clause of, say, three jellied eels.

Austin then declares his undying love for Loftus Road, QPR, London and hoops of all kinds including spaghetti.

Villa then pounce with a bid of five jellied eels so as to see off the threat from any potential bidding war.

Please don't apologize for a joke..

Hoppo, I know you and you're an alright geezer, but you have no idea of the circumstances of people on this forum who could have very upset by that joke. Fair enough, he's apologised, leave him to it.

Yes.  But in fairness there are others on here who work in, or deal with, situations where a bit of gallows humour gets you through the day sometimes. It is the wide backgrounds and personalities of people on this site that makes it the site it is.

I think (without wanting to speak for anyone else) that the point was that while the NHS FUND the IVF the actual treatment takes place in a specialist private clinic.   At least that was the case in my experience, the NHS funded our 1st attempt and the freezing of any additional embryos created.  Our 1st attempt was successful so when we wanted to try for a 2nd time we had to pay for the treatment and implantation of the stored embryos ourselves.  Obviously, I don't know if the NHS would have funded further attempts had our 1st try been unsuccessful.
Now, any news on transfers

[eamonn]

Hmm, do we really want Austin?

[cdbearsfan]

I want a forward. I don't think it's fair to expect Gestede to play every minute and if we're going to have loads of wingers to choose from it makes sense to have a tall alternative to Rudi.
