The sadness that prevails in the last hours in her body is enormous West Ham. The well-known friend of the group, Chris Knollwho had become a “hero” in the Alkmaar hooligan incidents in the Netherlands, suffered a stroke at work and was left paralyzed.
Knollsy, as Hammers fans call him, last May faced the Dutch hooligans and while he was alone he was not afraid, protecting the families who were in that part of the field, as a result he became a symbol for club.
The bad news about his health caused great sadness, with the English collecting the sum of 13,000 pounds, while another 50,000 is needed to buy the necessary equipment, as well as to provide financial assistance to his family.
Announcement about him Chris Knoll also issued by West Ham fans, who report: “It’s been a few months since his heroics during West Ham’s semi-final against Alkmaar. The mysterious legend in the green shirt found himself in a life-changing situation.
While working, he suffered a stroke. It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we say this great, strong man is now paralyzed on the right side of his body and this has drastically affected his speech. Doctors are confident that with the right care and support he will overcome the problem, but that could take months or even years.
Alkmaar fans broke down a fence and launched a brutal attack on a small group of families of West Ham players and supporters. The fan never took a step back and held the offense almost single-handedly».
Two West Ham v around a hundred balaclava’d cowards.
Well done Knollsy. Protecting the players families ????
