This is dedicated to everyone who was at todays game. You all made it what it was. ATB. Reeco

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I took the whole family. It was a very special day today and a glowing reflection of the popularity, love and respect Mike has. Big thanks to Reeco and the Jacks for stepping up and making the effort, you may have lost the match, but you have gained a lot of respect and done yourselves and your City proud. Thank you also Carl, Annis, Jason Perry and everyone else who made it happen, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and something that would be great to build on for the future :)

Huge respect to everyone involved, great to see common sense and a fellowship in football and family coming to the top today.

None of us want to lose the rivalry, but for God's sake let's all keep a real perspective on things, no one should get hurt, no one should get jailed, no one should set out to hurt someone else just because they support a different team.

I'm not suggesting peace and love for all, and for all of the time, it is quite obvious the "hug a hoodie approach don't work" every time and sometimes in life if you are bullied or under threat, then you need to do what ever you have to in order to protect you and yours.

But that is life and nothing to do with football, simply supporting another team doesn't warrant hatred and violence, so let us all try and keep it real, there are more people in my neighborhood than watching Swansea who would be first on any hit list I would put together.

I try to view every new person I meet as a potential friend, if they want different, then it's up to them, but I am always prepared to offer the hand of friendship.

I found the whole day very touching today, once again, a big thanks to everyone involved.
