I have decided that I would like to come to the cup final on Sunday to be able to take part in the minutes silence for Ollie. This is not an easy decision to make but I'm trying to stand tall for my son as I know he would do for me. I am both terrified of, and longing to see his friends but I feel I need to do that before we all have to face his funeral together. Our friend Matt Fuhr is coming to support me and he knows a lot of the boys too and he loved Ollie like a little brother. Could you share this message with the Mavericks families please as it would be great to have as many of Ollie's friends that can attend to be there to honour my darling son, and their good friend. As you know Ollie's family and his friends were his world and I know he would want us to be strong together to support one another.

Thank you
