Rumours about that Liam Miller is in a hospice in Cork and doesn't have long left to live. 36. Regardless of his past with us, that is all kinds of tragic for him and his family. Taken direct from twitter |

Yes just seen that now mate. Seems hes going to be receiving treatment here so hopefully the days to live part was a mis quote somewhere. sad at such a young age with so much more to live for. really sent a chill down my spine reading that. I remember being a young lad and hearing all the hype about Miller and his utd move and thinking what a life this lad has ahead of him great to see an Irish man doing so well at that stage of his life. took a bit of inspiration from that. More to life than fame and fortune. Really hope he gets better. |

It seems he's 'fighting' cancer and not in a hospice which, despite being still awful and serious, is better news than was rumoured earlier. Good luck Liam, this is the biggest match you'll ever play. ------------- "Sometimes, sh*t happens, someone's gotta deal with it, and who ya gonna call?" |

He lived every young lads dream. Played for Man Utd and Celtic as well as being capped internationally. Growing up in Cork he was a role model to many.

RIP. So tragic for any young father to die so young and leave behind his family like that. Remember that Lyon game and the excitement after. Amazing performance, Fergie leaving as soon as he was subbed. Larson saying after the game he is the best in the world for his age. Remember reading all of the stories on teletext and the praise he was getting from all over. There was pure excitement that we had a new superstar. Ok, for whatever reason it didn't reach the level that was expected, maybe the early injuries limited his physical potential. |
