Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 Just heard Jeff Stelling say that him and his mum were stabbed last night. Both still alive, but Callum was stabbed in both legs. I wish them well, but what a bizarre situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bromley Saint Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 From West Ham United website: "West Ham United can confirm that Calum Davenport was being treated in hospital on Saturday afternoon after an incident late on Friday night. "The 26-year-old defender and his mum both suffered stab wounds at home in Bedford. His mum is recovering while Calum underwent surgery this morning and his injuries were described as serious by doctors. "The club's medical team are in contact with hospital staff. The thoughts of everyone at West Ham are with Calum and his family and, due to the ongoing police investigation, no further information will be released at this time."

stkev7 Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 Well I grew up in the same town as him and went to the same school, let's just say he was never an angel and some of the people he started to knock around with... well let's leave it like that. Obviously a shocking thing to happen though and I hope he gets well soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ART Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 This thread ought to have been a sticky to throw light on what a sick society we live in. Latest news from the hospital says that Calum may lose a leg and not be able to play again. I am gutted to read this and even more so the sick comments of some who pretend to be Saints supporters. Very very sad and my sympathy goes out to Calum and to his mother and hoping the doctors can save his leg. http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/466189/Hammers-star-Calum-knifed-Docs-battle-to-save-Davenportrsquos-leg.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmm Donuts Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Think you'll find there has been trouble brewing over family and associations for a while, but the result is well out of order. I know it's early days but there is some doubt if he will play again from what I heard locally. When you look at the humble origins of some of these players, they enter a world of huge sums of money which can bring problems with it. He does support local youth football so does give something back to his area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 This was clearly a 'domestic'. I wonder what his charming sister thinks now? Who needs enemies when you have a delightful sister like that Think the following answer your questions. Sisters boyfriend did it - and she´s pregnant with the idiot : / http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2602790/Knifed-football-ace-Suspect-is-sisters-lover.html "Police are investigating a row that erupted over the unborn tot his white sister Cara is expecting with mixed-raced Worrell Whitehurst." Are they suggesting that race had something to do with the argument that lead to the stabbing? Otherwise it seems really odd to mention their colour. Awful case. His sis hopefully won't stand by the (chap) but will see the wisdom of her brother and mother. It's in police hands now so he will pay the price. Just hope Callum and his mother recover fully and his career can be resumed. Sun article : His pregnant sister broke down in court today as she supported the lover accused of maiming the West Ham ace. This emphasises what a cesspit society parts of Britain have become. The scrubber stands by her boyfriend who has maimed her brother,possibly causing the end of his career and the loss of a limb. No doubt the Taxpayer will have to fund yet another little bastard, whilst his father is also housed for a few years also paid for from the same source. Although memories of Davenport in his Saints era are not favourable, I would not wish this on him and hope he makes a sound recovery and is able to resume his career (to maintain his crap levels he showed for us at least).
