Absolutely brilliant post from RAWK on Sturridge:

He's a deadbeat dad. You rarely see him. You grow to resent him a bit because at times it feels like you'll never see him again. Part of you gets used to life without him. Fudge him... we don't need him. 


Then he shows up one day out of the blue. He's armed with a handful of the latest computer games that you wanted. The new Fifa?!? Mum would never buy you that... He's loud and funny and happy... not like mum who's struggling to make things work on her own, without him... Mum's no fun.

But deadbeat dad is great. He takes you out to the zoo. He buys you the biggest ice-cream with not one but TWO fudgeing flakes in it. He even gets you a baseball hat that's shaped like a monkey's head. He takes a selfie of you both, making monkey noises. Cute. Afterwards he takes you to pizza hut. Mum never takes you there. This is such fun. Everything's amazing again. Even mum seems more enthused by him being around. He drops you home and says he'll see you next week.

But he doesn't show... nor the week after... nor the week after that... Mum tries to hold it all together, but there's so much work to do and she could really use another pair of hands... she's losing it. Fudge sake Dad, where are you? And the resentment grows again. You love him, but he's breaking your fudgeing heart.
