Pongotastic Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Point for debate: Are Blues fans acting with more grace over this than we are? I just remember some of our fans singing about Tracy Andrews/Cisse's family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 latest, excellent news if true Everybody got excited when Alistair Campbell unfortunately said Stan was in remission previously when it wasn't accurate, but Karl has confirmed tonight that the great news is now true. Tweeting: 'I have been asked by Stan to say a massive thanks to all of you as he has just received the fantastic news that he is in remission. But will have to be monitored for the foreseeable future. Once again thanks to you all for your ongoing support.' read more here**** brilliant.

Daniel Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Official Site It is with great delight that the club can confirm on behalf of our long-standing captain, Stiliyan Petrov, that Stan's acute leukaemia is in remission. Stan would like to take this opportunity to express his deep gratitude to the medical staff who have looked after him so well since his condition was diagnosed just over four months ago. He also wishes to place on record again his profound sense of appreciation for the incredible outpouring of love and support he has received from Villa fans, his team-mates and colleagues at the club, as well as football fans and many more people around the world during this period. He and his family have been moved by the depth of feeling stirred in so many people and he has taken great strength from it, too. Stan's fight is not over. There will be further battles to overcome in the days, weeks and months ahead. But he would like to share with you this tremendous news now and, in time, deliver his own personal message to all of you. On Stan's behalf, the club would like to thank everybody for continuing to respect Stan's privacy and his family's throughout his ongoing battle against acute leukaemia and for those who have raised awareness of the condition. Stan remains very committed to this crusade going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
