Today, family and friends gathered at Sheffield Cathedral for the service.

The poignant ceremony was also broadcast on a big screen outside the building.

Harvey was fatally knifed at All Saints Catholic High School in Sheffield on February 3.

The death of the Sheffield United fan shocked the city and left friends and family heartbroken.

After their son’s death, Harvey’s parents Caroline and Mark Willgoose released a statement which said: “We are utterly heartbroken at the loss of our beautiful boy, ‘Harvey Goose’.

“Our lives are devastated and will never be the same again.

“We have lost a beloved son, brother, grandson, cousin, nephew and, most importantly, a best friend to all.

“Harvey will be forever known for being a caring, loving and funny young man.”

A 15-year-old boy, who legally can’t be named, appeared at Sheffield Crown Court earlier this month charged with murder.

The teen, who is also accused of possession of a bladed article and affray, spoke only to confirm his identity.

He was remanded into youth detention accommodation to next appear at the same court for a plea hearing on April 28.

A provisional trial due to last for four weeks was set for June 30.

The court was previously told how the teen allegedly brought a hunting knife to school, which was used in the attack.

Harvey was knifed twice in the heart before he died, it was said.

Heroic teachers raced to perform emergency first aid as the school was placed on lockdown.

Harvey was rushed to hospital in a serious condition but tragically died shortly after.

MANCHESTER UNITED chief Omar Berrada has warned staff they face being sacked if they continue to leak information about the club.

The Red Devils’ CEO made the threat in a 580-word email to employees this week.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s United reign has been plagued by poor performances on the pitch.

Erik ten Hag was sacked earlier this season, with successor Ruben Amorim taking them even lower down the table.

While off the pitch, around 250 staff have been made redundant in a bid to reduce spending.

And now, those who remain have been warned that “additional measures” have been put in place to prevent any further leaking of updates.

Another 100 redundancies are expected to come in the following weeks and months.

But despite acknowledging the unsettling conditions, chief executive Berrada told staff that anyone caught leaking information to the media will be sacked.

An email seen by the Telegraph read: “Anyone disclosing information outside of the club is breaching their obligations of confidentiality, and we are very clear that this will be considered gross misconduct.

“To protect the club and its colleagues, additional measures are being put in place to prevent future breaches of confidentiality and also identify any persons responsible.

“Journalists are extremely well-versed in gathering information from multiple sources.”

United have not commented on the email sent out by Berrada.

It came in the same week that debt levels at the club hit the £1billion mark.

The figure rose after United spent £10.4million on sacking Erik ten Hag and staff.

While Dan Ashworth’s exit cost £4.1m as total revenue dropped by 12 per cent over the quarter.

RONNIE O’SULLIVAN has revealed he will return to action at the World Grand Prix.

The Rocket has not played since early January, when he first withdrew from a tournament – the Masters.

Ronnie O’Sullivan explained the reason behind his recent absence[/caption]

O’Sullivan subsequently withdrew from the German Masters, Welsh Open and World Open, all on the eve of the tournament getting underway.

That raised concern O’Sullivan would miss the remainder of the season, including the World Snooker Championship which begins in April.

However the world number four has quelled those fears by revealing his comeback date, as well as the reason why he has been missing from action in recent weeks.

He said: “I am really looking forward to coming to Hong Kong to play in the World Grand Prix.

“I have just been having a little break to keep myself fresh. I am excited to see you all.”

O’Sullivan missed a number of tournaments on “medical grounds” as the seven-time world champion prioritised his health.

He added: “I’ve been trying to prioritise my health and well-being, which sometimes means making last-minute decisions not to play.

“It’s never an easy decision and I hate letting people down. I’m doing what I can to get back to my best, and I’m grateful for all your support and understanding.”

O’Sullivan will make his return on March 4 at the World Grand Prix in Hong Kong, where he has residency.

He has made no secret of his love of playing in China in the past, preferring the venues in the Far East to the leisure centres where some UK tournaments are held.

O’Sullivan said of playing in China: “I always tell people you have to come to China. For me, it’s the greatest place on Earth.

“I would just recommend anybody to just come to China. It blows me away. Every city I come to in China … it’s like you’re in another world.

“It’s the best place in the world. There is no other place like China. Every city just has something amazing about it and Nanjing has a lot of history.”

ANOTHER day, and another Elma Pazar Love Island feud emerges.

The Towie star, 32, famously locked horns with Ekin-Su in the All Stars villa, and now she’s embroiled in another spat.

Elma and her partner Sammy Root came fifth in the final[/caption]

This time it’s Ron Hall in the firing line, as Elma has failed follow him on Instagram despite him taking her on a date when he first entered the villa.

There are few reasons why she might have beef with her fellow Islander Ron.

On their date he upset her when he accused her of “being over the top” with Ronnie Vint – who she was couple with at the time.

She later had it out with him in her usual Elma style, and he apologised.

However, the icing the feud cake may have been he voted for Elma and her man Sammy Root to be axed.

It came when he returned to the show before the final to take part in a vote on who would leave the villa.

BITTER FEUD

Ron wasn’t the only one that Elma took a dislike to in the AlL Stars villa.

Viewers watched a rivalry develop between the Towie star and Ekin-Su towards the end of All Stars.

The once firm friends fell out when Ekin-Su gave Elma’s partner Sammy a peck on the lips during the heart rate challenge.

She had promised Elma not to kiss Sammy before doing the opposite.

Although Elma claimed she could “forgive” Ekin, she found the “forgetting” part harder.

Later, Curtis pointed out “spite” behind a question Elma and Sammy asked about him and Ekin in a villa game.

They wanted to know “do you think Curtis and Ekin-Su are the weakest couple?”

The two women also clashed after Elma told Curtis to “f*** off” during a spat with Elma refusing to say sorry.

Although she did later apologise, viewers reckoned they sussed out the “real reason” behind doing so – a day before the final.

BRUTAL SWIPE

After leaving the villa, Curtis and Ekin-Su took a swipe at rivals Sammy and Elma following their spats.

It came after the couple spoke to Amy Hart on the Love Island: The Morning After podcast following the finale.

Addressing tensions with Elma and Sammy, Curtis said: “I feel like the situations that went on… I don’t want to say we were in the wrong or the right.

“But I feel like we weren’t in the wrong.”

Ekin-Su continued: “I’m going to stand by that we were in the right. For me, that was not okay at the time.”

Ultimately, Elma and Sammy finished in fifth place while Ekin-Su and Curtis placed third.
