Rip Thread

Wow. This year has been horrific

 

Who’s going to design my tank tops now!
Damn.

Sad news.

 

With designs like this one he'll be sadly missed.RIP

 

We call him Peter Cardigan in this house.

He's not on my playlist but nevertheless he gets a RIP.

 

Hopefully they'll name one of them ends of the stadium after him.

 

You know ET it always seems that your childhood heroes are popping their clogs regularly, there must be a fair few hoping they weren’t or aren’t on this list.....

 

Man City already did, looks like they’ll need another end named Bell, thereby giving them 2 ends with the same name

My helmet has his name on it.

 

A tattoo or biro inscription? Length ways or circumference?

 

My dad used to take me to Maine Road as a kid, mid 70’s, the gratuitous violence, the skin heads, the 12 hole ox blood doc martens, the racism, the chanting.
‘ Don’t look at them son, just follow me’

Oh and the boring football bit in between!

Sad news, he was a top player.

 

That sounds cruel mate, especially when Liverpool FC is just up the motorway.....

 

Not sure about the FC bit, but the Walker Gallery is deffo worth a trip

 

Crosby beach is worth a visit, take Wellies or decent boots. The beach sculptures by Hirst look great.

 

My favourite player of the day.Came from a small mining village near mine in County Durham.Was a handy local cricketer too. Think he would be called a box to box midfielder these days .Tremendous athlete and great player
