Congratulations on the 30,000th post, who'd have though it. When I posted the thread it was off the back of a typical daft joke from, Allan, MrRAWhite. We were in the Victory and he said, 'Did you see the singer from Showaddywaddy has just passed away?' I said, 'Isn't it the singer from Mud?' That's right, that's right, that's right, that's right .....
Bloody good thread it is as well. Know them road signs "mud on road".....I always say to the Mrs, I hope they play Tiger Feet. She doesn't get it. Anyway, it's nearly Xmas....just saying
I never met Allan, but looking at the pics various posters put on of I feel like I recognise him. Was he on the STID documentary? Am I right in thinking it was MrRAWhite that bought the alcohol free brewdog by mistake? One thing that does come across from the pics....he looks like a cracking bloke, a happy bloke.
It was indeed him re the alcohol free brewdog. Not sure about the STID thing. Smug or GA will probably know. He certainly was good company tho and without doubt the most passionate fan of SAFC I have ever met.
Allan was always a pleasure to be with and never made enemies despite not being shy to express his opinion. I remember sorting a ticket, for him, for a 3-0 at SJP. He trusted me to keep my word and turned up at Central Station in full combat gear We walked up together to SJP, obviously Mackems, and none of the Mags came near us. We got to the turnstiles and said our goodbyes, I never sit where I should and just 'walk the earth'. I've no idea if Al expected us to sit together but he just accepted me for what I am ... ... that was Allan, as long as you were straight with him that's all the mattered. ,
Was that the game I’d arranged to meet him when you had a broken rib? He rang me while he was on the train, it went a bit mental so I made my way elsewhere.
I just saw Cat Steven’s sitting down, crying next to his camper van. I said “What’s the matter, Cat ?” He said “Awning has broken”
I was bored so l swapped all of the sweets into different wrappers. My wife isn't amused . . . . she got her Snickers in a Twix.
