Yeah, Billy Sharp really deserves a huge amount of respect! Football must have helped him take his mind off what happened.
His hat trick here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wRjK2jiaiHU Took his third goal well
Was pretty dire tbh. I want for Leeds to do well tbh, think they deserve to do better. After all that they struggled through, and then fought back from.. Would mean an awful lot to them and their supporters IMO.
His son died aged 2 days. He played a match 3 days later and put Doncaster 1-0 up as captain for the evening.
WAFG!! Poor bloke. Sport is a good way to channel emotion though. Whenever I was in a bad mood I always ended up smashing someone if i had a rugby match. As long as you can focus.
Yeah, got no shame in saying I teared up when I first heard the story. When he scored he lifted his shirt and on his under armour he had the message "That's for you son". Can't actually comprehend what that must have felt like after having your child ripped from you after 2 days. It's just not fathomable.
