I thing that this puts things into perspective - football really isn't a matter of life and death. Should he have played after receiving the news? Should his manager have asked him to?
How were you feeling yourself on the day that your father died - could you have gone to work?
UPDATE: When Originally Posted This Article Said He Died Two Hours Before The Match. Now It's Been Corrected To Say It Was 10 Years Ago.
In which case it's not a story. Move along folks, nothing to see here - sorry to have bothered you.
MODERATORS - Please delete this thread if you can, thanks. [Post edited 20 Jun 2014 12:57]

My missus was taking the piss out of him too - claiming he was soft.
Took balls to play after hearing that news. Don't know if I would have made the decision to play, but respect to him. Clearly there's nothing he could have done had he not played.
Sad stuff there. |  |

You've got a missus? Blimey. Next you'll be telling me Jethro is older than 15 and has a job. | |

Jackfath - My guess is that you're amongst the minority without a missus.
Really? Thought so. [Post edited 19 Jun 2014 22:23]

Should his manager have asked him to play? His father died 10 years ago. Am I missing something? |  | | |

I think the story has been updated, after it initially said he died 2 hours before the game. |  |

Before she found out his father had died numbnuts. She thought he was getting all teary over the anthem.
Should I start abusing your missus now (if you have one)? C*nt! | |

Thought she was starting to smell, but she always said you f*cked up her minge to such an extent it smelled like a graveyard - so thought it was normal.
DId find it strange though why I was able to detach her arm to scratch my ass. | |
