Beautifully done.

Theres a lot of pics and videos out there which obviously all come from a good place, but are actually tacky and in bad taste. But this is perfect. In awful circumstances, i'm glad he got to experience that promotion and share it with his family in his final few weeks on earth.

If I can type through the tears....that is very fitting and beautifully done. I still can't believe this has happened, so very sad for the family. A tragedy almost beyond belief.

I’m sitting here with tears in my eyes after watching that. Going into the last game of the season, I was so ill I could just about get to my seat as I couldn’t miss that game for the world. When the final whistle went I just sat there and smiled, I couldn’t get on the pitch as I didn’t have the energy.

But I wanted to, I wanted to go down there and shake Justin’s hand and just say “thank you” I’m gutted I never got the opportunity to do that, to let him know that I’m greatful for what he’s done to our football club. No other words were required just a simple thank you would have conveyed everything to him.

Justin if your reading this “Thank You”

I watched just after the rest of the office had gone home and you were right about the effects. Moving video - that end scene got me 😥

A very sad watch. But beautifully done and a great tribute to Justin. Totally agree with gshaw about that last scene. Had me in pieces.
