Irish Leeds United fan praises player's 'lily' gesture

A Leeds United player has laid flowers at the statue of Elland Road hero Billy Bremner in memory of a fan who died recently:
Charlie Costelloe/Barry Douglas

Defender Barry Douglas was contacted on social media by Charlie Costelloe, a Dublin-based Leeds fan whose dad, Cormac, had died a short time ago.

Mr Costelloe had recently bought an engraved stone by the statue for his dad, and he asked Douglas if anyone from the club would lay a lily on the stone to remember him.

Douglas told Mr Costelloe he would "see to it personally" and later in the day he kept to his word.

Writing on Twitter, Mr Costelloe said the player was "an absolute credit to the club":
