Title: Billy Sharp
Post by: Dinny Breen on November 02, 2011, 09:56:06 AM
In a sport dominated by the antics of the prim-ma-donnas, the emotional bravery shown by Billy Sharp last night while very sad is still uplifting..

Totally agree. As someone said last night Carloz Tevez on 200K a week refuses to play, and Billy Sharp who lost his 2 day old son gives his all.

RIP to the wee lad.

Im glad the referee had the common sense not to book him when he took his jersey off - im sure there are others who would have!

Fair play -  he'd put Tevez and a lot of other primadonnas to shame.

Good player too Billy Sharp. Great championship striker and seems to be a great pro.

Would be very hard for anyman to lose a child. Doing it in the spotlight of world football wouldn't make it any easier.
