Not sure how many of you on this forum knew Mark (who sadly passed away on Saturday), but he was a real passionate Gills fan and was the Vice Chairman of the Gillingham Indepedent Supporters Club. He and his wife Margaret always made me feel welcomed whenever I came to watch a game at Priestfield. We would meet them in British Royal Legion Club before walking to the ground together. RIP Mark
R.I.P Mark, sorry to hear that, did not know him myself but have heard from a few who said he was an amazing fan, will be missed!
