R.I.P. Ambers Dad. Also, it's nice to see the Leeds & Leicester lads paying respects. It does get easier. I've lost both my parents so I know where you're at at the moment. Take care Amber.
There is nothing I can say that hasn't already been said in previous post, commiserations on the loss of you dad.
There's been some stupid stuff said between supporters of different clubs on not606 on a variety of subjects, a lot of which cross the line. As has been said above, good to see that it doesn't matter who people support, it is, after all, just a game and there are some things, no matter who you follow and how string your allegiance, that we all agree are more important.
condolences to you and yours, I know only to well what it's like to lose ones parents, so many questions I wish I'd asked, so many things I should have said, at the end of the day I still have wonderful memories. Time does heal but it's good to remember also
Cheers for all the support lads, means a lot. It's difficult, but as all you who have stated that you had been through the same, it will get easier to cope with other time. He was in fact a Leicester/Hull fan. Due to him living in Hull as a youngster, but moving to Leicester in his early 20's after splitting from my mum and for work purposes. He followed the logic of supporting his local team, which was Leicester, but he always kept heart for City. It does mean a lot that there's so much support from everybody. The last thing he said to me was, "Look after your family, look after your brother, family is important. Remember, if Leicester go up and Hull don't, you owe me £25 and a carvery!" Then visiting times were over, and he died the next morning. Thanks everybody, really, thanks.
Sense of humour until the end, that's the mark and measure of a truly decent man. Family first, football just second. I had brilliant banter with my LUFC supporting father in law before he passed away. his final words to me the day before he passed on were along the lines of 'look after my girls (his wife and 2 daughters) and if you don't I'll haunt the **** out of you'.
I under my own admission post some provocative stuff on here from time to time, and even some out and out WUM stuff. This is one occasion where I will do neither. My dad died just as we reached the promised land. He had supported The Tigers all his life, and never got the privilege of seeing his beloved Tigers at Wembley. I know how you feel. My dad was my best mate, mentor, and calming influence. I love and miss him every day. My thoughts are with you. CTID.
