Really saddened to hear this news and it certainly puts football into perspective. I would also like to chip in towards a TV for Phil to watch Crouch score the winner in the World Cup final. SURELY there are enough of us to chuck in to get Phil a Lap Top so he can chat when he's on the ward?

Keep fighting Phil i reckon you've got a couple more Liverpool League titles in you yet lad.

This is REALLY SAD news as Phil is one of the best and most genuine posters on here. My thoughts are with him and his family at this very difficult time; hopefully phil can take inspiration from Istanbul last year and fight back and beat this illness.

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE PHIL MATEY

i'm sure phil put a huge smile on all our faces not long ago when he announced he was clear. i hope with all my heart he makes us all smile like that again, and that the smile stays there.

all the best to ya phil - and to mrsdrummerphil too. walk on.

[Lando_Griffin]

Bloody hell. Come on Phil - you can beat this. We're all behind you mate. You are a top lad, and don't deserve this.

Best of luck and best wishes to you and your family chap.
I hope you're back on here soon.

[fivecups]

Just want to echo what's been said above. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Lynds - keep us informed.

[Igor Zidane]

Mornin all, havent heard anything yet maybe someone else has?
As soon as we have some info over what hospital he's in or his home address, we can start to get some donations together every little helps, Phils got two young little girls, and if we can help his family Im sure he would really appreciate it, its a little help from us at this terrible time in their lives.

When we get some news MODS can you organise a paypal account and make this topic a sticky.

[woof woof !]

Got back from holiday last night ,I'm devastated to read of Phils relapse . Hang in there Phil we're all thinking of you .

To the Mods and all members and friends of Phil .
Someone mentioned earlier in this thread the possibility of chipping in to help provide Phil with a TV . I'd like to take it a step further and suggest that we try and raise sufficient funds to provide him with a lap top computer to help him through the long days ahead , lets not just sing YNWA , let's do something to ensure Phil doesn't have to  . If we all kick in £10-£20 we should be able to do it .
If one of the Mods (Jonny Mac ? ) is able to take on the task of receiving the money ,purchasing and delivering the lap top I've got a cheque for £20 ready to post .

God bless Phil .

I have his home address, is it ok to post it up here or should i pm it ?

[Woollyback]

£400/£500 would get him a half decent laptop from dell or somewhere who could deliver it to him. i'm sure between us we could all manage that quite easily for phil, with hopefully some left over to help mrs phil out. let me know when there's a paypal account or whatever set up, i'd do it myself but don't know how

[Ciggy]

I have his home address, is it ok to post it up here or should i pm it ?

Great idea woof, on one hand he would be delighted but would he have internet connection in hospital?
Id like his address Mikz to send him a card pm me it please mate.
Now we know Mikz has his address can someone open up a paypal account please and we can start to donate and send him a nice pressie.

Phil's in the local University Hospital of North Staffordshire, Ward 123.

I have replied to Phil's wife Karen a couple of days back but as you can imagine she has more important things to worry about than us.  I've had a confirmation receipt that she has read the e-mail I sent but she must not have had time to reply.

When she gets back to me, that's if she does, I will tell her we all feel we want to contribute towards a laptop or TV, however best they feel the money should be spent.

I will look into the Paypal situation, I'm sure it's not too difficult to set up as I have researched it in the past and it looked quite simple.  Obviously, they will have to set it up at their end with their bank account details but I'm sure I can get the instructions for them and help them wherever I can.  If this isn't possible, we may be able to send donations via the hospital itself or his home address.

Personally, I think it's best to hear back from Karen first.  I'll wait for her reply.  What do you think?

[woof woof !]

Great idea woof, on one hand he would be delighted but would he have internet connection in hospital?

Damn ! I hadn't considered that       .

Long time (touch wood) since I've been in a hospital , don't know what facilities they have .

[Ciggy]

Nice one John, maybe put this topic in LFC dissgussion as some members dont touch Gen chat and wont be aware of it.
