This must have been why our coach was held for an hour or so after the game. In hindsight I feel horrible about complaining about how long it took to leave after the game it looking back, although none of us knew the severity of the situation.

RIP Bluebird. thoughts with his family. :bluebird:

RIP fellow BLUEBIRD Mike - very sad news.

He looks very familiar from the photo posted. I wondered did he carry a wooden walking stick with him as I remember sitting near a man at the Derby county away that looked like him.
