A matter of life and death
There are times in sport when even hard-nosed, cynical journalists like myself are moved by what they see and Grant Leadbitter's goal against Arsenal was one of those moments.
I would be the first to agree that sometimes we all take football - and sport in general - a little too seriously when you consider the bigger issues affecting our lives.
Lose your job, can't pay your mortgage, your family is about to be evicted and your home auctioned by the bank - or your football team loses 2-0 at home!
And then there is a the tragic loss of life, something Leadbitter has had to contend with this year following the death of his father.
