Yesterday we had the funeral service for Moz’s younger brother (58) who tragically died on New Year’s day from a heart attack. That’s two former close friends lost in the space of a few months which is devastating for the family and friends alike. Michael was a staunch Villa fan who worked in the Bolton area for the last 20 odd years. He was a very good teacher and respected by his colleagues and pupils and took every opportunity to preach about the Villa whether people liked it or not. He couldn’t get to many Villa games in the recent past so took up following Bury FC so he could watch some live football and support the down trodden. He’d never consider being a glory hunter so Bolton were out of the frame. RIP Mike, make them laugh as you can wherever you are.
