    Goodbye to my best ever HCAFC Legend, Brian Bulless. The nicest man you could meet. The ultimate family man. My hero. Sleep well Grandad.

    He made a total of 369 appearances for City.

    Never saw him play but used to know his lad Steve.
    Trust the club will do the decent thing on Saturday.
    (Shame we even have to think such a thing.....)

    Wonderful player. First footballer I recall using a long throw in. He had a great understanding on the pitch with Bill Bradbury. Liam Brady reminded me a lot of his style years later.
    RIP.

    I saw his debut match in 1953 at BP against Southampton when he scored the only goal(HDM incorrect saying it was at Southampton). A delightful player to watch.

    RIP.

    Part of the team during my first times of going to BP in the late 50's early 60's, a solid no nonsense type of player and an affable type of guy. In fact I have a City badge from Brian's shirt, maybe the shirt in the pictures for all I know, procured for me by Jock Davidson after I had nattered nearly every player as a pesky lad (even nuisance I suppose) back in those days. RIP Brian and thanks for the memories.

    In 1962 Glenn's mission marked the catch up point for the Americans against the Russians in the space race. RIP Mr Glenn.

    Don't know what I did wrong last time.

    He seemed to be an ever present forever, which he was in a way. One of the many players who lived round our way, Eastfield Road, Westfield Road area, how things have changed, they were still Gods to us but they lived next door rather than in an Ivory Tower. RIP Brian.

    Yuri Gagarin was the first, John Glenn the first American.

    I always enjoyed watching Brian play, the 2 things that stood out for me was his consistency as a player and Les Collinson's red face.

    RIP Brian, one of my favourite players. As a kid I lived in King St not far from where BB lived.
    I remember his parents house had a Cream Painted fall pipe.

    Micky Fitz lead singer with The Business. Cancer. RIP

    They're the sons and daughters of well off bankers
    Tom Robinsons' army of trendy ****ers
    Flared blue jeans and anoracks
    With yellow streaks all down their backs
    Who act so tough when their on tv
    But trendy ****ers don't scare me


    Oi!, Oi! Oi! Chosen few
    This is what we think of you
    Surburban rebels playing at reds
    You would be urban terrorists
    You don't scare us with your badges and banners
    You know **** all about heavy manners

    You're the middle class kiddies from public schools
    Who write the slogans on the toilet walls
    Like Tony Benn's clones in plastic masks
    You wave a hammer and sickle, never Union Jacks
    Got lots of mouth when your in a crowd
    But when your alone you don't speak loud
