Heard today that shreds mum has passed away . Bless 96 .
Shred was our leader, travelled everywhere in uk and abroad with him .
Remember his dad passing away at old Manor ground at Oxford and Shred being told.
When Shred died, the funeral was unreal thousands of blades. The club will never be the same without him .
I drove him and others to our Cornwall tours 4 years running what a legend..the night he refused to pay for a hotel and slept in a cupboard and had a cat stuck to his hair.
Memories of goodison and Shred at arsenal coppers saying you got 5 minutes before we escort you so both ordered pints and copper said we've told you and both drank in one slurp .
Iron bar jack - legend
Jowett completely off his nuts , the places I've been with him including Budapest...
Jowett jumped over a wall at Rotherham and ended up in a sewage plant the okd millmoor . Bill brealet a close friend for years a legend .linfield away 8 hour plane delay coming home from Belfast we were all bolloxed as we got free drinks ...boiling hot day ..
We eventually gets on the plane and Bill had yellow underpants on the pilot refused to take off till he covered up .
We've had some legends like Herman, dodger , Rainford, I could go on and on but this club and its fans could never replace these legends....
We were shit but we went everywhere.
 

Bill Brealey and Shred were frequent travellers in my uncles car to pre season friendlies in the mid to late 80s, which were basically piss ups with a game thrown in. Visited grounds like Gosport, Skegness, Stafford, Grantham, Frickley. Good memories.
 
Shred was, and always will be, our leader. A man amongst men. Sooooo many stories I could tell about trips away on the Shred Express. Back in the day when pubs shut at 11pm I swear Shred knew of a place that did 'after bird' in every town in England.

I will always go to the home games, but must admit, I'm growing a bit weary of travelling too much these day.... tbh only get to about 5 or 6 aways a season these days. Things just don't seem the same without our leader with us.
