First Big Keef and now Wally. I knew him very well going back to the years of the old GTFC Supporters Sunday Footy team and when the Mariners Supporters club was down Kent St, where The Yardbirds club is now. I was also in the GTFC Supporters pool team with him too. The last time I saw him was at Bournemouth last season when I found him wandering around the streets looking for a real ale pub and we went for a pre-match drink together before the game. RIP mate, another one gone far, far too young.

"That Grimsby team was pound for pound, and class for class, the best football team I have seen in England since the war. In the league they were in they played football nobody else could play. Everything was measured, planned and perfected and you could not wish to see more entertaining football."    Bill Shankly Logged Offline 0 0 Reply: 6 - 32 jungleland March 3, 2010, 4:07pm Table Wine Drinker Posts: 870 Posts Per Day: 0.19 Reputation: 84.77% Rep Score: +3 / 0 Location: cleethorpes Approval: +94 tragic news really good lad was wally ... will be sadly missed town thru & thru ..  great loss he was someone who put 100% into everthing he did .. be it  chairman of the supporters club  camra .. and more recently his blue`s of the month club  ... condolances to his family   as  les said much to young Logged Offline 0 0 Reply: 7 - 32 StiggsGTFC March 3, 2010, 4:25pm Cocktail Drinker Posts: 1,831 Posts Per Day: 0.40 Reputation: 77.08% Rep Score: +9 / -3 Approval: +41 Absolutely tragic news.
