    RIP Tom, still can't believe it, no texts, no calls, no moaning about the match, always praising the fans, just proper Mr Sunderland.

    If it's 'invite only' does that mean that it's not worth going to the crem. if some who'd like to 'show their respect' aren't allowed to go to the wake :emoticon-0112-wonde

    I was at the BCB for Davey Dowell’s memorial and there were hundreds there. Drinks only as you couldn’t put a spread on for that many. Maybe there’s a spread and that’s why they need to limit numbers?

    OK, St Chad's 11.45 get in if you can, a lot are meeting at the Board inn for 10.00 to 10.15.
    After the church, it's at the the Crem then on to the BCB for family close friends and guests.
    Numbers of guests I don't know yet just waiting on that.
    RIP TOM

    I'm working in Scotland so no chance I can get there.

    So I'll have a moment, with just me and Tom, then make a charitable donation.

    He was a great lad I bumped into from Toulouse to Tranmere, always a pleasure.

    Good work mate, I'm still finding it hard to believe ...

    ... after Allan Crago and now Tom I flinch just a little when my phone pings.

    RIP Tom
