Rochdale has been rescued from relegation by Joe Thompson, the man who beat cancer twice
Some truly inspiring news came from the League One where Rochdale has been saved from relegation on the final match of the season. On 69th minute of the game against Charlton the Dale’s midfielder Joe Thompson steered home the only goal of the game that allowed his side to move up the relegation zone by a single point.
Most remarkable thing about that win is the fact that Thompson just returned to the first team after going though personal hell – he has been diagnosed with cancer twice in the space of 5 years.
Initially he was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in 2013 which he had fought in 2014 after six-month course of chemotherapy. Bit in early 2017 Thompson was diagnosed with cancer again and once again he fought his way back to complete recovery later the same year.
Shoutout to that brave man Thompson! What a commitment to life and team!
I wish Thomson a full recovery
A really committed player with his team and his return will make him more insistent on the progress of the team
His determination to resist cancer will give him strength to insist on achieving goals with his team
