Thanks Jim, I don't know how to cope with it but we have to stay strong, we are in our late 50's so it's less heartbreaking than Elliott's story but it still hurts, cheers pal.Well said Hammo, next time I watch those injury time minutes vs QPR they will have even more poignancy. Ps Stay strong for your mate. Jim
Condolences pal, horrible thing to lose your best pal and nice post.Heartbreaking news..
Im sure Elliot was stood near me with his mum coming back on the tram to Ashton after the Burnley or Arsenal games a few weeks back,I recognized him from the videos on the city website.
I lost my best mate to cancer last year.
My thoughts and deepest condolences to Elliot's family and friends.
RIP Elliot.
It's Dave Morris - he is in charge of the ball boysHopefully, someone can help me. I was just wondering, in the video where Elliott got to meet Pep and Sergio, he's on the touchline at HT in the Everton game and someone (an "old friend" according to the video) walks up to greet him. The bloke had a City tracksuit or training top on. Is he an employee of the club, maybe something to do with the ball boys? Elliott was obviously very close to the fella, going by his tearful reaction when he saw him. I just watched that video back and, knowing what has transpired, it was a hard watch. Someone that young shouldn't be taken away like that.
Cheers for that. I thought it might be something along those lines.It's Dave Morris - he is in charge of the ball boys
RIP Elliott
