Stan's progress update

[Hookeysmith]

The window is open and i think some dust has flown into my eyes

So fucking proud of my club - as the opening lines state - when we are surrounded by "Support Suarez" t shirts, the indignity of everything Chelsea do and the stink of Unted fans and Cities money - i am so glad i support this club

I was one erring on the side of lets stop the 19th minute now - but the  comments from Stan himself makes me realise how much he knows we care for him and just makes me really proud

fuck me that window is open again

Just read all the above and agree with every word.

Wishing him all the best.

One day, we will score in the 19th minute and the roof will come off. I was at QPR on Saturday and when Benteke's header hit the net around 19:30 our first thought was for Stan. Bloody lino's flag.

Always the 19 minute, for the rest of time until Stan gets through this.

This.

I agree.

I dont want to sound to depressing but when i saw him at the Charity match it brought home a memory i have of my best mates Dad. I had known him for years and i initially saw that he was unwell (he and my mate ran their own business and as such was too close to notcie the changes in the old man body as such) anyhow he got worse and worse until he was diagnosed with exactly what Stan has. Anyway his treatment started and the next time i saw him was at my fiends wedding day - a day his dad desperately wanted to be at. When he arrived i genuinely did not recognise him as the chemo had really took its toll - this is what i saw when i saw Stan at the game - it made me realise that this is such a horrible disease and hopefully the fact that Stan is a super fit footballer that his body will be able to take all the punishment, unlike my friends 62 year old Dad who lost the battle days after his sons wedding.

On the subject of class versus crass - Considering what we do the whole 19th minute thing for its recognition has had less media coverage than the pathetic Chelsea 16th minute version for their failed, sacked manager

That whole club sickens me and the sooner the Russian fucks off the better - they then can go crawl back under the rocks that they all came out from under

[danlanza]

Agreed, wholeheartedly.

You can rest assured it gets plenty of coverage and kudos over here.

Good point Hookey, and nice to know VID.

I was somebody else who thought that maybe the 19th minute applause had had its day, but we shouldn't let the odd idiot win and so I'll be glad to see it continue.  My own dad has just been diagnosed with cancer of the throat and lymph nodes, so anything that draws attention to people attempting to beat this horrible disease, the better.

Sorry to hear that Riss.  I wish him well and a speedy recovery.

[Legion]

Sorry to hear that Riss.  I wish him well and a speedy recovery.

Me too.

Best wishes Risso

Stay strong Risso. My brother in law has the same condition aswell as cancer on his liver. Not good.
