Mark Halsey- BPL Re
Sir Alex may rage about refs but he was the first to wish me well
Mark Halsey had not eaten for three days, was utterly exhausted but could not hide his elation. The results of a scan taken at the start of last week had shown that the 48-year-old Premier League referee's
throat cancer was in remission.
Three-and-a-half months after being told that he had the worst example of the disease his consultant had ever encountered, Halsey could start planning his comeback to Old Trafford, Anfield, Stamford Bridge and the other major grounds.
The support has meant so much. It's kept me going.' The biggest names in the game Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Wayne Rooney, John Terry and Frank Lampard have been in contact to wish him well, and he has been overwhelmed by the hundreds of letters he has received from fans
'I've really been taken aback,' said Halsey.
'You don't realise how many people round the world know you, and it's meant so much. It has really kept me going.'
Ferguson was one of the first to telephone, a response that may surprise those who only recognise the Manchester United manager's willingness to criticise match officials.
'The way Sir Alex is about referees is just emotion at the end of a game,' said Halsey.
'That's all it is. He's very good in situations like mine and sees me as part of the football family.
