Leyther_Matt Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I’ve only known him for a few years but he was an absolute gent and has been a good friend to my other half and her family over the years. Other half once went watching The Orb in Preston with him because nobody else was daft enough He’ll be sadly missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breightmet Boy Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Great man Paki, enjoyed his words of wisdom on trips. His taste of music was weird, but a true gentleman, will be joining a fair few Manny Road Northers upstairs sadly. R.I.P Pal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolton va va Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Paki has been a constant in Wanderers' away support in all the years i've been going - thick & thin . This season i've chatted with him at a couple of the away games & though he was a bit frail he was always cheerful & good company. The loss of a real Wanderers' fan & very sad news.

Anybody knowing Pakis legendary sense of direction will know it might take him a while to get there but it'll be a fair old piss up when he does.

Smiley Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 RIP Packy! Travelled up to 'Boro with him and his van load (including Miggy - RIP) for the legendary Gavin McCann victory. Proper good day out. We stopped in Boroughbridge on the way back. Top fella. Did some right old organising for tickets and away travel for so many people.
