Dave,

Is this any good:



The internet is many things, both good and bad, but this week we saw how tragedy can unite football fans of two clubs.

North Stand Chat plays host to a large number of Albion fans and also receives contributions from a number of fans of other clubs.

One such fan would have been here today but for the tragic end to the life of her beloved daughter.

Sinead and her husband Paddy are huge Leeds United fans and Sinead has posted a number of times on North Stand Chat under her internet name of 'Starry'.

Her daughter Anastasia has been fighting illness for a while and this week lost her battle against cancer at the tender age of 2.

Club rivalries were forgotten as messages of support for the family poured in and many of us shed more than a few tears after reading Anastasia's diary.

Death is always an awful event but when it happens to someone so young it always seems much more tragic.

I'm sure you will all join Brighton and Hove Albion in sending our condolences to Sinead, Paddy and their other children Callum and Francesca.

Rest in Peace Anastasia
