The one to take with you is the Cup Final. Even if the result wasn’t what we wanted, you’ll always remember how much he loved going to Wembley with you x
RIP John - we’ll miss you x

It's actually the semi final against Liverpool that I remember more fondly. He was undecided about going for some time, thought it would be too much effort at his age but we talked him round. At the final whistle, he grabbed my wrist and squeezed it and said "Thank you for bringing me!"

What a memory Joe.

Hugs.

At the risk of repeating others, I'm sorry for your loss, Joe. From the sounds of it, your Dad was a great bloke, and I have no doubt that McGrath will smile upon him.

Very sorry to hear that Joe, he was always available for a chat and the instigator of them.  Lovely man he was.
