Amazing Slaven Bilic made a young lad’s wildest dream come true after the West Brom match and showed himself to be perhaps the finest person to ever manage the Hammers.
ClaretandHugh was contacted by follower and the young man’s father, David Parry, who could barely believe what was happening when the Irons boss approached him at the end of the game we had won 3-0.
What we absolutely love about this story is that Slav clearly kept the whole thing private and wasn’t looking for any sort of personal glory.
David takes up the story:
“I go to most games. Yesterday (Sat) with my 10 year we were at the game. At the end of the match Slav sees my son with his scarf and asks me if its ok for Benji to go into the dressing room. Is it??
Slav took him off, he had photos with the team and was given shirts. He listened to Slav address the team. What a fantastic experience! What a fantastic person Slav is.
He really is a people’s fan. I wanted to share a one off experience with you. Benji is still on cloud 9!!
Slaven Bilic, we have said this any times before – you are a quality human being – what a gesture… what a bloke.
And Benjii told ClaretandHugh: “I want to publicly thank Slaven from the bottom of my heart – it was amazing.”
Slav deserves a song by Iron Maiden didicated to him ! Real quality.
Legend.
The man is a class act.Well done Slaven for making Benji so happy & proud of you & the team.
I hope he’ll stay with us for a long, long time.
Top man and great manager. 😉
He is a top,top man.Man of the people haha.I loved what Pardew said about Hippohead & his comments about Crystal Palace on Saturday.Pards said Hippos comments were prehistoric.Even other managers know he comes from Jurassic Park now Matte,haha 😉
I saw that comment of Pards,made me chuckle when he mentioned Allardyce & Prehistoric.
ahahah… All Sam The Caveman has to do now is take refuge in the cave drawing his cunning tactics on the wall… I’m sure monkeys also will be bored to death… lol 😀
Great gesture !!!
Lovely guy. Lovely gesture. The result a child with a fantastic lifetime experience. See slav gets good results even of the pitch 🙂
Well Done Slav 🙂
