So long dad xx

So sorry for your loss. My dad died in December having hid what proved to be a terminal illness from us until it became clear something was wrong to us a few months before his death. I still cry about him most days.
 
So sorry to hear this Cog. Remember all the good times. My first time at Ayresome Park with my dad was also in 1966. Some great memories over the years. By the way, I think we were on the same flight from Paris for the Cardiff final. Best regards
 
Sorry for your loss. A close friend of mine lost his Dad recently too.

I hope you can cherish the good times and memories.
 
Sorry for your loss CLC. Hopefully being by his side supporting him at the end will act as some small comfort to you during these difficult days.

He will be watching on from the Holgate in the Sky ❤️

Just took our dad for a transfusion but the exercise was too much for his cancer riddled body.

He died in front of me at the James Cook as they got him off the bed to weigh him and he just shut down.

I'm back at his home where me and my girlfriend moved in to care for him a couple of months back. It's a shame the Boro didn't manage the promotion in the end but he was resigned to going and I suppose it was really quick.

He started taking me to Ayresome as a 4 year old back in 1966, even for the reserves games and he'd often take me to Hutton Road to see them train. Beating the jawdees 2-4 at Sid James' in 78 was a highlight of the many away games we went to. His biggest sacrifice was giving me his ticket for the Millenium Stadium for the League Cup win when he nursed my dying mother back then. He always told me about how we were robbed in the 6th round of the FA Cup against Burnley back in 1947.

Who's going to bail me out now?

RIP Neil. You were a great man,
