Well done Darren Bent. More should do the same.

Glad to see that both players have a kind side, good luck to Bradford and the two young lads mentioned in this thread.

That's a lovely story about the Bradford lad, it's something that he and his family will never forget.

Yes this is much more important than a game of football. I hope this lad remembers a great night for him for next 70 plus years.

I don't give one single solitary fuck about being dumped by a fourth division side if it means that that child gets to live a full and happy life which is the right of every child everywhere.  I'm hurting like the rest of you, but the title of the thread says it all.  Thanks for posting.

As a father myself I couldn't agree more.

I'm finding it very difficult to begrudge Bradford their day in the sun and this is another reason to be pleased for them. All the best to the lad, I hope they win it for him.

Really delighted for that Bradford lad. Glad he will have happy memories of Villa Park.
