Am I alone in thinking it's mot such a great deal and that it's the least you'd expect from a fellow human being. . A bloke, who knows another bloke has lost a baby, has a word with him and passes on his deepest sympathy. Sorry, I'd expect nothing less. From anyone.

No-one else has seemed to do it in public this season. For an opposition manager who is in his first year in England and obviously found out beforehand and makes a point of finding Arter himself is quite admirable.
I for one have to give him praise for that.

Is it really "quite admirable" though? Or is it what you and i would do, if we knew the same info? I think it's a gesture that anyone would and should do, in any walk of life, if the circumstances arose. I can't bring myself to heap praise on Pep for doing what should come naturally to anyone. A bloke lost his child. Who wouldn't want to sympathise with that? I think what he did was a lovely gesture, but no more than what anyone could/should do, given the circumstances. Let's not make it out to be anything more than that. Or we risk putting Pep on a moral pedestal for a fairly natural piece of human kindness.No-one else has seemed to do it in public this season.

Mirror headline.Hope the media picked this up.
Would be nice to see them recognise what a great man we have as our manager.
We are soooo lucky to have him.
Man city manager unnecessarily trawls up a tragic past. FA encouraged to investigate.
Niall Quinn was asked to comment...
I'm sure most people would think it, or post it on a forum or something, but to actually go up to him and make a point of reaching out is a class touch. It is what we want people to be doing and he should be rightly praised as it's a good example we want people to follow. Too many ****s out there or people who are willing to just do nothing, the only way to improve is to acknowledge when someone does the right thing.Is it really "quite admirable" though?
