Interesting day in the heavy metal world.

Legendary Bob Daisley has thanked fans for their support after Sharon Osbourne slammed him as a “sad old f*ck”.

Daisley took to his Facebook page saying:

“I have to say, I’m truly moved and impressed by the fans who have left messages and supportive words. It’s good to know that so many of you valuable people know so much about my history and are aware of the actual truth.

I’d simply like to say a heartfelt ‘thank you’ to each and every one of you; I’ve read every single message that was posted. Love to you all, Bob Daisley.”

Daisley said that he harbored no ill feelings towards Ozzy.

“I don’t burn bridges — I don’t hate people.

“If there was a way to do it where we could work something out in a sort of nice way, I wouldn’t say it’s completely out of the question. It’s a possibility, I suppose, depending on the circumstances on how they sell and offer it.”
