T R Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Sad news. He was a good friend of my late cousin who would tell me good stories of him and springer on their away trips which sounded mental! Me and my son used to have a good chat with him when we used to see him in the dolman at half time. My heart goes out to the family and his son who I met a few times.

poland_exile Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 remember him from when I was a kiddie following city. Red Beard Man we used to call him, legend to me and my mates growing up. There was one time, in the open end, freezing cold game and for whatever reason, he started us lot who used to gather in the top corner singing the theme from Rainbow Didn't know him personally, but many, many snapshot memories of him. Best to his family and loved ones, a real character - one that's left his mark on complete strangers such as myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Didn’t know Kev personally either, but again, recognise him from pictures. One of those familiar faces that if you saw him you nod in acknowledgment as having been around with you on many match days over the decades. Struth, in the last few years we seem to be losing far to many of the ‘family’ who we stood shoulder to shoulder with, home and away. Rest easy. Condolesences to all family and friends.

Harry Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 RIP Springer. First him on the old open end, giving it to the away fans. Me and my mates thought he was an absolute legend and were in awe of him. I was proud to later become a mate and share some brilliant times, but yet still be in awe of him. What an incredible bloke. Condolences to his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
