On WWs everyone else seems to be fair game when ill, dying or dead. Do we close or lock threads for them too?

 

For the record I don't get involved in morbid shit like this on here.

IIRC we weren't allowed Nat Lofthouse when he was close to grabbing his ball for the last time.

 

Maybe it's just those that are close to the town that we get arsey about on here.

 

Anyway. I reckon this is all social media bullshit. The guy is mega private, respect that and let him or his family announce whatever needs to be announced in due course.

 

We know nothing concrete so don't act like you know any different.

Maybe it's different because there's not much chance of say, George Michaels family reading this site but a chance some of Peter Kay's would ?

Through a friend of my Irish stepmother, I have heard only that his real christian name is actually Oliver and not Peter. When she asked about Peter, she was told, "He's actually O.Kay".

 

Read into that what you will.

That may be a remote possibility. But nah, I'm not having that. It's more to do with personal sensitivities. Posting shite says more about the poster and them that join in with the pack mentality. Don't read the thread if you have issues with it. I do. But if you close a thread because one, two or three persons have issues with it then where do you draw the line? Will be interesting when the Queen goes. I predict a mass WWs brawl.

wish more celebs was like him

I don't see why the public shouldn't know, can't court publicity then turn it off when it doesn't suit. Goes with the territory. At least he could say he isn't well but either bearing up or struggling.

They'll have replaced him with a lookalike. See Paul McCartney and Avril Lavigne

Avril Lavigne looks nothing like Paul McCartney

but would at least it might suggest he's not dead

He could be dead but someone is pretending that he is still alive so they can carry on claiming a benefit he was on.

What kind of person would do that?
