Stiliyan Petrov has been diagnosed with acute leukaemia!

I thought that players should've stopped and clapped as well, 1 minute wouldn't change so much and that would show a real support.

He's denied the retirement reports apparently?

[Vincent 402]

Like many of you might still know, i´ve also had this diagnose. After high dosis chemotherapy, radiotherapy and a bone marrow transplantation. I´m doing ok. I´m not the ´old Vincent´ but im getting there. Everyday i´ll think of the hell i had to go through, the hell where he and his family still have to go through. All the best for him and his family.
