Fenerbahce have paid for a Manchester United fan, Louis Diamond, to fly to Istanbul to meet Robin van Persie after a video of the youngster crying at the news of the Dutchman’s exit from Old Trafford went viral. The video, filmed by Diamond’s parents, came to the attention of Fenerbahce supporters who started an online campaign to raise $2000 (£1,281) in July so that Louis could get the chance to be reunited with his idol. The clip found its way to the Fenerbahce president Aziz Yildirim who then decided to invite the Diamond family to Turkey. Yildirim’s invitation was accepted and they arrived in Istanbul on Thursday evening to be greeted by the Fenerbahce TV crew.

The five-year-old will watch the opening game of the season between Fenerbahce and Eskisehirspor on Friday evening from the president’s box at the Sukru Saracoglu stadium. Although Van Persie’s participation is not yet confirmed, with the Dutchman only returning to training on Wednesday after injury, he will meet the Diamond family after the match regardless. A Fenerbahce board member, Ilhan Eksioglu, had another surprise in store booking the family a five-day holiday in a popular summer holiday destination Antalya.

“We want to thank Fenerbahce and the president for making this happen. We can’t wait to see Robin van Persie play,” said Diamond’s father Sam upon arriving in Istanbul.

 
Yes, its so touching. Meanwhile, 6 thousand children under the age of 5 die each day in Africa from starvation. They could be fed for 66 american cents a day.

I struck out at the bar tonight and am feeling quite salty. We are the world, bitches. We are the children.
 

I can't be the only one sick of these feel good stories, am I? I mean, take the ice bucket challenge...or running 100 miles for charity. If one more person asks me to donate for some crap purpose, I'm going to puke.

Tell you what, why don't I donate 5 bucks for every mile of road where you clean trash out of the ditch? Or paint over graffiti in the inner city. Or fly over to freakin Angola and do surgery on cleft pallets or ingrown freakin toenails or something.

Meh, and stay out of my yard.
