I think I should give the team talk next week: “Most of you have met me before; I am a very determined young lady who has a daily battle to win. I have lots of reasons for giving in and thinking why bother fighting but know that the moment I start thinking like that I may as well not be here. It’s ok my parents, brother and doctors/nurses fighting to keep me alive but unless I fight for myself their hard work would be pointless. I think you all get paid far more weekly than my parents get monthly so forget about all the so called problems off the pitch. you are paid to go out there and play football and win games, so get out there and do it!” I don't know what is happening down at Oakwell but I know I don't like it. Rant over. Laura (angel)
Yeah, we'll line up the tea-cups ready... ...for you to sling at 'em! We'll even teach you some swear-words for greater effect!!! ff
Laura, I didn't read your post until Sunday but I have to say, that despite your mum's misgivings, I think you should deliver it to Oakwell and I think if Mr. Shepherd is as good a Chairman as he thinks he is, he should have it printed in the largest type available and have it plastered all over the walls of every dressing room at the club. Except the away one of course. Well done you !!
I'll think about it. Because everyone at Oakwell has been very good to me it is upsetting to know that there are problems down there. I don't have the answers to what's happening but I wish that things can be sorted quickly.
