Billy Dane Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Sad news. According to the article he got to see her again after our game, which will be of some small comfort to him. RIP.
Hassony Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 She is the twin sister of Jamie's mother isn't she, His mind looked like it wasn't on the game on tuesday, but fair play to him for playing, must have been awful
Gilps Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 She is the twin sister of Jamie's mother isn't she, His mind looked like it wasn't on the game on tuesday, but fair play to him for playing, must have been awful Don't know if they're twins, but their mothers are definitly sisters.
Old red eyes Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I read on the day of the game that her condition was stable. Bloody hell. Never nice for someone to lose a loved one. RIP.
Knoxy Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Terrible news Felt sorry for him on Tuesday when he got a bit of stick, which was a first.
M4TTA Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 sad news indeed, RIP my thoughts are with his family
Andy Mac Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Yep, condolences to the Lampard family. I think it is also worth mentioning that Chelsea have been an excellent employer over this matter. I speak from personal experience, that knowing you are being supported by your employer whilst you need to regularly attend hospital to tend to a dying relative, takes a great deal of stress out of the situation and you can concentrate fully on your relative.
Andy @ Allerton Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) RIP Whatever we think of Lampard - he's just a poor lad that's lost his mum - hope he and his family are going to be OK. Edited April 24, 2008 by Andy @ Allerton

Agreed - they have behaved impecably and I am sure they will continue to. This is exactly how my boss was with me and I would not have coped without it. My sincere condolences.
D.Boon Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I would imagine if a boss did not let you attend the bedside of a dying family member they are not worth working for? My thoughts are with the Lampards.
Old red eyes Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I remember when my own mother passed away. I was stood at the check in at Dusseldorf airport when my wife rang me with the dreaded news. The airport staff took me to a quiet room and gave me quite a few vodkas. They noticed i was a smoker so they gave me a bottle of Vodka and 200 tabs from the duty free for nothing. They also reimbursed my flight costs. It's little things like this which strengthens your faith in mankind. I'm sure Frank will be looked after by his club and the footballing fraternity. Just hope the press let him and his family grieve in peace. Would be a nice gesture if one of our attending fans makes a simple banner for next Wednesday.
fred milne Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 LIVERPOOL SEND CONDOLENCES TO LAMPARD Liverpoolfc.tv 24 April 2008 Liverpool Football Club sends its condolences to Frank Lampard after the death of his mother Pat. The Chelsea star missed Premier League games against Wigan and Everton to be at his mother's bedside. But, when her condition improved, he returned for Tuesday night's Champions League semi-final first leg 1-1 draw at Anfield. He returned to be at her bedside after the match but her health suddenly worsened and she passed away after a battle with pneumonia. http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/drilldown/N...080424-1240.htm
Guy_Incognito Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Gutted for him. There's never a good time to lose your mum, but he's not much older than me.
