Everyone is different of course, but my dog(s) have mattered more to me than most people that I know and will know.

It’s just how it is.

I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the club offer him a very cheap contract until the end of the season, or maybe even until the end of January when the MLS season starts just so there's an extra body available for our mid season fixture pile up.

Well, if it's a playing contract, I will be massively surprised.

It's a pretty sad and desperate end to his carer. When I say desperate, I don't mean that in a derogatory manner, His dog disappearing and the upset it has obviously caused pretty much concludes the past 2-3 years of Ramsey's career. He was never near it with us, should never have attempted to save us for those last three games, constantly injured and still injured. I really do hope that he can have a word with himself now and do what most fair minded people were saying and that is to retire. It's all ended a bit sadly for him, and I would say that coming to us at the time he did, then Mexico, were poor decisions. Rambo, just let it go.

Yeah I agree last few years of mainly injury and now heartbreak. He’s so loaded he doesn’t need to work but no doubt he wants to do something in football, possibly with us working with the kids….didn't realise he was injured again also, his body is shot surely he knows that. Are there any details on the place he left his dog? It was a dog sitter type place I think? I can’t imagine what they’ve done to his old beagle, all cams turned off etc, why? If they wanted to extract money for some reason off him to get the dog back he would have paid by the looks of it? So weird

Right? I guess when money is not really a factor, priorities shift.

We’ve recently had to have our dog put to sleep and he was 14 and a half, due to a twisted stomach.. Our family is devastated, he was such a big part of our life and he came on many holidays with us.

It could have also been quarantine related, depending on the legal requirements.

My heart goes out to you Mate.
Hopefully the happy memories take over the heartache soon.

I wonder if he regrets not taking the job if it was offered to him as we were led to believe. A good group of youngsters all doing well whilst it’s looking more and more unlikely he will make the WC squad as anything other than a cheerleader if Wales get there.

The situation he’s in seems bizarre. He’s been reported as saying that he’d been lied to about the dog and nobody is telling him the truth. It looks like he’s terminated his contract and is returning to the UK forthwith
