Billy SHARPE today

[Ernest]

See Forest have got a player called Billy Sharpe in their team, shorely this can't be the same player who had his career ended by Lewis Dunk last season ?

 

[bennibenj]

Yeah, same one

Good on the lad, became a father again yesterday I believe. Having lost a son not so long ago.

 

[Djmiles]

He made a miraculous recovery. Lets just hope El-Abd can finish the job today.

 

[Soulman]

Yeah, fair play to the lad, sad news when he lost his son.
Mind you i hope he had a sleepless night last night

 

[Superphil]

It was only just over a year ago he lost his son, then played the following day. Seem to remember some oppo fans made unpleasant chants about it, can't remember what team he was playing against.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

There is a grim inevitability about him scoring & revealing some sort of t-shirt or otherwise related goal celebration today, isn't there?

Barnsley




Sharp is a **** to be fair , but some take it too far.

I was thinking that. Might have a little bet to soften the blow!

 

[Biscuit]

I'm AMAZED he can still WALK let alone play professional football. I thought he told all and sundry that Dunk had ended his playing days?

 

[Notters]

Can't be him. Pretty sure Dunk killed him. Twice.

 

[Eggmundo]

Have we got a card?

 

[tgretton87]

Dunk did smash him to be fair! Knee high if I remember

I don't think the chanting was the day after. When he scored his goal both home and away fans clapped which is a nice touch. The chanting came a few weeks later, can't remember the teams though.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Indeed. The Doncaster fans reckoned Dunk had killed him, and burnt his bones on the pitch. Must be a different Sharpe.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

But no worse than the previous assaults from the Doncaster thugs.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Dunk did smash him to be fair! Knee high if I remember

Your getting confused with Calderon who headbutted the other Donny player in the knee. Dunk's tackle broke Sharpe's leg in 3 places or in other words, cause ankle ligament damage.

That will result in binfest threads about how we should have signed him

I have a feeling he's one of those players who's essentially a professional northerner, who will never really succeed anywhere they don't serve gravy with chips. That's presumably why Southampton have loaned him out. I'd still have him here, but I don't know if his heart would be in it.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

I could have brought some gravy over if he'd signed, just the stadium being a no chip zone that we'd have to get over somehow

Your correct bit of a hazy memory that day.
