I wish him well. and I’m with Inspector Munse on this. People are dying all the time, including young people, through medical issues and violence and accident. In workplaces in the UK someone dies and there’s a paragraph on the intranet and then the bosses want the machines running again and a job ad is put up. the only difference here is that he’s a well to do sportsman who it happened to on telly; other than that, it’s just what happens every day somewhere. The pundits and papers are just an expanded version of the intranet paragraph - with a few exceptions (friends/family) the vast majority of the football industry want the machines up and running again as quick as possible but want to look compassionate in the meantime.
At the end of the day, he'll have a happy normal life for the best part, probably just not as a professional footballer. He'll learn to live with that.....
