    Men<ok>

    Not been on for a while and wont be either...new job and first baby en route in less than eight weeks, so busy as ****, but I just wanted us all to recognise something.

    We rip it up on here, spurs are **** (yes), Utd are c@nts (yes), Scousers winge (yes)...

    But it's all bollocks.

    Ginge was a regular here since it started, and on the BBC for years...

    He is a man of 65 who was looking to go to Munich and watch the match in the beer gardens and enjoy it, then come home and either lick his wounds or bask in the glory of us winning.

    The night before the final his wife passed away, and since Drogs let me know I've not known what to do on here.

    The answer for me is nothing, but seeing some of what's been going on across the site it seems fitting that we should acknowledge it.

    Goodnight Mrs Ginge, and even though I never knew you, I'm thinking of you and Ginger Marks as well.

    Long live the berks.

    Terrible news, very sorry indeed for your loss Ginge, hope some happiness comes your way in the near future, to compensate for the sadness that has no doubt overwhelmed you just now.

    Not been here that long but he's a top bloke. This is terrible news and just puts everything into perspective doesn't it? God bless Ginge and may his wife rest in peace. You never know what's around the corner. I hope he can come to terms with this awful news and I do hope he's back on here very soon.

    I don't post on other boards much(LFC fan) but know Ginger from when he's been on ours. Sincere condolences on the sad news. At times like this words aren't much use, but they're all we have.
    RIP
