It would be nice to think the club would buy, and keep, them for display. But I know it won't happen.

Be very sad if a collection like that doesn’t end up in the club archives/museum…but I would have very little faith Mr bottom line will see it that way

According to the mail Gary insisted the collection was kept together even though they would likely go for more if sold individually, the suggestion being the club might buy them.

Think he sold his medals a few years ago and these are now being resold by whoever bought them

Just read the coroners report for Gary, so sad and an awfully sad way for a life to end.

His Medals sold for £39.500.
Hope it was the club that brought them.

That's a lot less than the estimate.

It's such a terrible shame. He was way too young.

Actually, the medals didn't sell. There was a bid at £39.5k, but that was below the reserve.
