SPIKE liked the gesture of freelance football writer, Philip Dorward, in the Sunday Herald, the other day.
In the capacity of both writer and Dundee United fan, he wrote a tribute to the club’s late chair, Eddie Thompson, who died last week.
It was an excellent read, finished off by the words: ‘Philip Dorward would like to donate his fee for this article to Ward 32, Ninewells Hospital, Dundee, where Eddie Thompson went for his prostate cancer treatment.’
Nice one.
