The wife of Sean Cox has thanked everybody who has helped their family over the past year.

The 53-year-old father-of-three from Dunboyne in Co Meath was attacked outside Anfield almost a year ago.

It happened ahead of Liverpool's Champions League semi-final against AS Roma.

After the attack, Sean spent five weeks in a specialist neurological unit in Liverpool, before being transferred by air ambulance to Beaumont Hospital in Dublin.

He is now in the care of the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Dun Laoghaire, where he continues to receive round the clock treatment.

His wife, Martina, has thanked everybody involved.

In a message recorded for fans at a fundraising soccer match in the Aviva Stadium on Friday, she said the family is extremely grateful for the generosity shown to them.

"Life has changed a lot - there's just myself and three kids at home in our house, and then Sean's been in hospital for the last year and that has been incredibly difficult.

"Life revolves around going to see Sean and all the different plans and things that have to be in place."

"I'd just like to thank everybody for the huge support they've given to Sean over the last year, and just to say a massive thank you to everybody".
