Not sure why I feel the need to post this on a football forum but just sadly lost my dad to a a short illness and suddenly died this morning. 
 

empty doesn’t cut it

RIP dad see you again one day x

Sorry to hear that mate

Mine are getting on on but both still here, whenever I hear of an older person passing each day it saddens me that I know it could happen any time, but makes me make the most of them as often as I can, particularly as they are now grandparents

we're all with you x

Sorry to hear about your loss RIP 

Sorry to hear your sad news. I too put on here  few years back when my dad died, it did help a little.

RIP and condolences to you and your family.

RIP. Nearly 12 years for me. Posted it on here as well. 
Gets easier with time. 

Sorry to hear that. Condolences to you and your family.

Sorry to hear about your loss, I lost my dad 3 years ago and like Smiley says it does get easier, i still get 'moment's' and get emotional for a second or so, but it's comforting too.

I was at a funeral yesterday, one of the Lads who came to Malta with us watchinging England, third one this year and it's only Feburary, 2020's been a shitter so far. Sorry to hear the news Esocobar

Saw you with Mr H

Very sad to hear. Condolences to both Escobarp and bolty 

Sorry to hear that Escobar - and you too Bolty......

 

RIP Escobarp snr

Tough old day that’s for sure. Just starting to sink in now I won’t get to have another pint with him or argue with him about football or even speak to him again. 
 

guess nothing prepares you for the loss of a loved one. Cherish every moment. It’s a cliche but it’s very true indeed 

I’m very grateful for all the kind words. It means a lot 

Condolences to you and yours. RIP

Just in the final stages of emptying my Mum and Dads house what they had lived in since 1958, place was like a palace and looking like a complete shell now, heartbreaking mate. Kept every single photo and framed picture of them together. It won't bring them back, but it will evoke memories for the time you had with them.

Sorry for your loss. Mourn in your own way and in time get strength and pride from what your dad was to you and how he would want you to live a happy life.

It worked for me.

See you for a catch up when you're back mate x

Will try mate but we are only there for two nights and might all be tied up with family stuff. Will be spending a lot more time there in the not too distant future.

Sorry to hear your sad news Escobarp, i did the same and posted it on here when my old fella passed away in 2006, dunno why i posted it but it made me feel a tad better at the time, it was sort of therapeutic somehow. Condolences to Bolty also for his recent loss, all the best mate.

Cheers J.

Thanks all for your kind words. Much appreciated.

Sorry for your losses, 

when my gramps went posted in here when he was Intensive care, was comforting just to be able to post to help me through. 
 

peace and love to everyone, especially those who are going through the hard times. 
 

 

 

For all it’s wum’s, kranks,  nutcases and vile druggie thugs this place is a godsend at times. 
 

thanks again to everyone. The show must go on as they say.

Manchester is a Saturday so we'll get cunted and go on the train, Leeds is a Thurday, no Liverpool this time so perhaps you could drive to Leeds. We'll have to see if that spunk trunmpet Smiley wants to come
