    Dearest not606 Friends

    Thank you Joe for posting this on our behalf. You are a true gent and a brother from another mother to me.

    It is truly humbling to know my darling husband has so many good friends on this forum. Your messages, thoughts and wishes have truly kept us energised throughout this last year.. i want to say so much more but am lost for words at present... I am really and truly appreciative and all the messages I have read on this thread are heartfelt and comforting. You are all simply wonderful...

    My Burly was be proud to have been part of the camaraderie and banter of this forum. I am proud he had you all too.

    May Burly's Mackem spirit live on... On his behalf, I raise a glass to you all with all our many thanks, deepest thoughts, infinite good wishes and eternal appreciation.

    Yours truly
    Mrs Burly Hurley

    (P.S. I will be rooting for the Mackems to get back into the Championship and then back to the Premiership where they truly belong ... we Gooners are waiting for ya )

    Am actually fighting back the tears here at work reading this.

    Mrs Burly - I met Mr Burly only the once (wish it was more) but spoke a few times on the phone and in private messages regularly when us mods had important stuff to partake in - My thoughts are with you and his entire family. Always one of my favourite posters on here and we look forward to meeting you gooners in a few years.

    I'll be raising a glass for him tonight before the match and be part of the get-together (all being well) in February. He will be missed by all of us but we won't let his life go without giving him a send off he deserves.

    Don't venture on your boards much lads. Just wanted to give condolences to all that knew the great fella we called burly.

    Never met the man but felt like I knew him just from chatting on the premier league board.

    Truly was a nice fella.
