Saint-Armstrong Posted 6 February, 2014 Share Posted 6 February, 2014 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/club-statement-sam-gallagher-1343308.aspx Southampton Football Club would like to send its heartfelt condolences to forward Sam Gallagher following the sad death of his father, Richard, at the weekend. Richard passed away last Saturday following a short illness. As a result, Sam has been excused from training this week and will not be available for this weekend’s game against Stoke City. We are sure that all of our supporters will join us in extending our condolences to Sam, his mother, Sally, and the rest of the Gallagher family at this sad and difficult time. Terribly sad news. Thoughts with the Gallagher family, he would have made his father very proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 6 February, 2014 Share Posted 6 February, 2014 (edited) It gives more meaning to this photo. On the day it looked like a manager congratulating a youngster he gave full debut, now we know there was a lot more going on... Make his performances in the 1st team even more impressive given the circumstances. Edited 6 February, 2014 by Matthew Le God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raging Bull Posted 6 February, 2014 Share Posted 6 February, 2014 Poor kid, really feel for him. May explain why he looked so devastated when he missed that chance vs Arsenal.

eurosaint Posted 6 February, 2014 Share Posted 6 February, 2014 Tragic, I assume that his dad was still a young man, it will take a lot out of the lad in the short term but at the same time it puts football into perspective !
