    I'm not talking about the Classic song from The Stranglers that reached number 8 in the singles chart back in '77

    Whatever happened to John Atyeo
    Whatever happened to John Galley
    Whatever happened to Bob Taylor

    Whatever happened to the heroes?

    I just lost my hero, My Dad will be buried next Friday in Midsomer Norton, I said goodbye to him on Thursday, he is wearing his red robin socks and his John Atyeo tie, City till the end, love you Pops x

    It has been and still is a sad time, but when I looked into my Dads wardrobe it made me smile to see his neatly collated City season tickets going back to the 70's, shame this seasons won't be used.

    We all of us have an expiry date but it is still a shock when that day comes. Deepest respects Massive and my sincere condolences <rose>

    As others have said, stay strong and look after Mum.

    My sincerest condolences Massive. Went through it with my Mum in 2009. I know how you're feeling.
    I'll pause and reflect for you all next Friday.

    It's a tough time saying goodbye to your parents and the empty feeling at present is not a pleasant experience.
    But cherish the memories, the times you spent together especially following your team.
    Mine passed on in 1981 and 87 and still miss them but it gets less hurtful as time passes.
    You have a whole club full of fans to support you so when you are at the Gate, make sure you use the ones around you to help you through it.
    Best wishes.

    My sincerest sympathy massive to you and your family from Canada. When I think about the things that I learnt from my Dad it shows how much we are a part of them even when they're gone and thankfully the memories will always remain. Stay strong.
