Steven Gerrard cruelly mocked on Twitter following international retirement

Hope this one does manage to slip his attention…

A great servant to his country over the years but feel it is the right time for him to retire.

I think in England we are too quick to throw away old players (Beckham, Scholes, Ashley Cole). Look how Pirlo still oozes class at 35 but for me this is the right time for Gerrard to bow out.

Think Gerrard himself will be disappointed with his poor showing at the World Cup and despite being a fantastic captain, now is the time to let England progress.

He was always better as an advanced midfield and for me, there isn’t enough to his game defensively to play as that anchor man.

This decision should help him to prolong his Liverpool career, where he is already a club legend of course.

From the web: The bizarre story of Maarten de Jonge, the Dutch cyclist who twice cheated death

This is the story of Maarten de Jonge, a man who has cheated death twice switching his tickets for both Malaysia Airline flights.

The Dutch cyclist was supposed to fly on both Flight MH370, which has yet to be found after disappearing over the Indian Ocean in March, and MH17, which was likely shot down over Ukraine this week, reports Netherlands public broadcaster RTV Oost.

The story may seem so improbable but the man himself confirmed it on his website.

Read the full story, something which is well worth doing, of the Dutch cyclist who was scheduled to fly on both doomed Malaysia Airlines flights here.
