Heron Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Tbh like I don't think that's been the case. We've celebrated both as much. I'll be honest though...i'd prefer it if we stayed focused on our own team on Sunday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Why do we need to fly a cancer banner over our rivals stadium? Football is f***ing weird. It really is like, could all the money raised not just go to the kids family/cancer charities? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely its tragic for the family going through something as terrible as this but theres many many children battling this awful illness that haven't had the luxuries bestowed upon Bradley, they may be asking their mum and dad why not me Bradleys family need to take this out of the media circus its becoming and have private memories of what time is left, i mean having him as the number 41 horse in the grand national......really Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I'd do anything to prolong the life of my kids even if it meant me becoming a media whore. The media themselves have latched onto it as well btw to the point where I imagine its now a case of them coming to the parents to say we can do this and that and get him here and there because its a good story. The poor bairn though My heart bleeds for him and his family, I just hope he somehow miraculously recovers. Not gonna happen though is it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Know what you're saying but the family are probably just seizing every opportunity to make his last few months special tbf. Aye. I don't blame the family for doing anything they can to prolong or save his life. I do blame the media and SAFC for creating this media circus somewhat. It's more of a pet hate than some sort of disgrace. Seems to be conveniently timed this whole scenario when they're threatening to slap reporters, getting relegated, in debt and harbouring nonces. Maybe I'm somewhat of a cynic? I feel sorry for the bairn obviously and wish him well...but howay... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree to an extent but honestly if that was me not in a million years would i be carting my terminally ill child around on all these jaunts putting undue stress on him so he can be presented infant of the media like some exhibit id have his time left being as comfortable as possible and enjoying private memories Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I'm not saying they would but, unless it's an official, registered charity that the donations go to, there's nothing to stop Bradley's parents using the money on anything they like. When there was a campaign to send Xmas cards to Bradley to get him a Guinness world record, his mother was interviewed on TV and she said "It's all about Bradley leaving a legacy". She was sitting with him when she said this. It's a terrible situation and people handle things in different ways but his parents must be happy with all the publicity. As for Everton giving him £200k, there must be loads of similarly unfortunate sick children in the Everton area. It's strange to me they paid that money.

madras Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 You know, I wouldn't be at all surprised if we didn't bother sending a plane over (I'm not in favour btw) and they had a whip round and orgainsed one for themselves so they could feel important and as if they mattered in some way.
