About 10 minutes in to the second half this afternoon, I was sat on the South Stand watching the match with my best mate and my young son, when I recieved the phone call to tell me my Mum had passed away.

For all the bitching and griping that people do about the Blades, it just goes to show how pointless it all is in the grand scheme of things,

Just want to say a huge thanks to the female steward on the concourse who came over to me when I was stood in a flood of my own tears, that human kindness I will never forget.

Really sorry to hear your news mate, nothing is as bad as this kind of news.

My dad was my "football mate" for many years ....... started taking me when I was four and we did first team one week and reserves the next ...... in the "good old days" when the reserves played at BDTBL.

Lost him 12 years ago and I still miss him, particularly at games.

I'm sure everybody's good thoughts are with you .......

Terrible news brownie, my deepest sympathy mate - keep going for the family.
 
the loss of your mother always cuts the deepest, no other bond comes close
I had the horror of watching my own brother die in front of me at a match at Burnley, and like Brownie recieved some great sympathy and comfort from Burnley fc employees and board members in subsequent days, there is something wonderful about people comforting you when these tragic circumstances take you by surprise and its nice to feel the warmth of strangers in these situatuions , bravo to the steward and all the best for the immediate harrowing future Brownie

Brownie, I wish I knew what to say. I know from when I lost my Mum, the pain is the most visceral. I can only say how sorry I am, and offer my sincere condolences for your loss.
 
Bert also sends his condolences.

Sorry to hear that brownie. Thoughts with you and your family.
 



You're right Brownie, this news really must put things into perspective. I imagine you won't even be able to genuinely celebrate a goal or a win for a good long while. Hope you're coping OK mate
 
There's an extra star in the sky now at night...

Take care Brownie mate. RIP to your mother. x
 
Sorry for your loss. Kinda puts things into perspective at times like this.
 
Thanks everyone for the kind messages of support.

She had been ill with Oesophegal cancer for a few months and it had spread to her spine as well. I knew it could happen at some point, but it was still a huge shock when I got the call Saturday afternoon. She lived out in Spain on the Costa Del Sol, so I had been out there a lot lately to spend some quality time with her, and it was an incredibly difficult as she spent her last few months housebound and in a lot of pain, so now a lot of the shock has gone, I'm relieved that she is out of pain.

Reflecting on things, I don't think I could have been in a better place to recieve the awful news, as I was with some of my closest friends, huge thanks to raul and LS26BLADE who spent most of Saturday night with me giving me some good support, especially as I'm the only member of my immediate family to still live in Sheffield so I didn't know what to do, and didn't want to make the long trip down to Plymouth to my sisters, and to anyone else I saw, most of Saturday is still a bit of a blur to be honest.

The last few days have been incredibly overwhelming with how much support I have had from a lot of different people, and the events of Saturday have shown me that although I do have my own family, I'm also lucky enough to be a part of the big, close knit Sheffield United family as well
