    Good evening gentlemen now the dust has settled slightly at the banishment of the Glorious one, some of the more sensitive posters on here can start the grieving process at the sad (or happy for some people) occasion.
    Whether he had it coming or not is not the issue, this thread is to reminisce about the man's exploits good or bad for us to remember him by
    This is not a thread to start throwing stones at our mods who do an excellent job on here
    So come on lads whats your memories from years gone by from the wumster
    virtue signal as much as you like, i'm sure he's looking in with a tear in his eye at the love being shown for a lost comrade
    Take it away Snowflakes<ok>

    I remember the first time we met up. He found me at half time at Hillsboro, a game we lost 6.0 if my memory serves me right. I was pissed and thought he was quite short(ironic). I realised later that I had been standing a couple of steps higher than him......<doh>

    My favourite memories are of the regular updates on his various property deals and the killings he was making. Heady days, brings a tear to my eye.

    My only regret is he was denied the opportunity to write a passionate dear John letter about leaving for the good of the forum, only to reappear by popular demand a few days later.
