royal white Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Very sad news, I had a few beers with him at Kirkys funeral and was speaking to him earlier in the week about raffling a rangers shirt. R.I.P. Al, a genuinely decent bloke who would do anything for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted March 25, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted March 25, 2022 Bloody hell, I knew he’d been poorly. Spoke to Al a few times, a genuinely lovely fella. The work the remembrance group do is absolutely incredible. His legacy will long live on. Rest in peace Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domcarey1 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Shocked by this. Spoke to him on Monday & exchanged messages last night about tombola prizes for future events. A selfless man who did so much for others. RIP…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazBob Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Terribly sad news. If you remember a friend of mine, Karl, sadly died last year and the Remembrance Group were amazing. Al is a huge loss, not just to BWFC, but as a thoroughly nice bloke in general. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolton va va Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Didn't know him personally but know that he was very well thought of by some proper Wanderers. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underpants Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I found out early last year that his days were numbered. To the best of my knowledge he never talked about his health issue publicly. Never look for sympathy. Never asked for it. He kept his business, his business. And he absolutely adored BWFC. Very, very sad loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulhanley Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 That's a shock. Never met him but chatted to him quite a bit on Facebook to do with 80s video footage and general Wanderers stuff from that era. He was very clearly someone who'd followed the Wanderers everywhere for a very long time. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter desperado Posted March 26, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted March 26, 2022 Awful news. The broadcasts he did with old players were great during lockdown. And the Remembrance work is phenomenal, what a legacy. RIP Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Steejay Posted March 26, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted March 26, 2022 Didn’t know him but have just caught up with his work. Amazing. Selfless commitment with genuine sincerity, without a thought for his own health issues. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breightmet Boy Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Good lad Al, very passionate about the BWRG and took a lot of satisfaction out of the effort he put in, overwhelmed at times.
