blending the mix

It seems that these days, when we talk about football, all we hear about is money.so, it was refreshing to read this gem from the bbc.

2 weeks ago, during the 2nd round Carling Cup game between Leicester City vs Nottingham Forest, a Leicester City player suffered heart failure and the game was abandoned.

Leicester City were 1-0 up.

Last night the game was replayed and Leicester City allowed  Nottingham Forest to score a free goal to even the balance and start the game at 1-1.

With so much of a smaller club’s financial future resting on cup success it was a brave and generous gesture by Leicester City to balance out the score.

Leicester went on to win the game 3-2 and all reports are that the player is some way to a recovery.

Maybe the big clubs should consider that good things happen to good people.
