Sounds like he had a good send off
RIP
Yeah he did,he had planned it himself,just after his wife died 8 years ago he went to Cribbs and sorted it,
He was at peace with it and was happy to be joining his wife who he idolised
There are still lots of the family who live in Canning Town and Custom House who still know how to have a send off.
And his son in law was the ex ICF bloke who won the lottery and went to the Sun and told them ,so no other cunt could make money out of the story.

A uplifting result that needs to be followed up on Saturday.But just enjoy this result till then lads.
Our days are few.
I agree.
Don`t matter what`s gone on,you have to enjoy the night.
I’m finding it hard to celebrate too, always good to beat the Spuds but it is so frustrating that we can play like that in a one off game especially against Spurs but play like we did against Brighton! Hopefully they can push on now and best Palace and turn the season round, but if not I can’t help thinking Sullivan will use this result as an excuse not to sack Bilic....

I just cant get my head around how poor we were last week, then we do this?
My head is a mess. Im more angry than happy.
**UPDATE**
I am happy with the win, its always fantastic to beat the spuds but dont let it paper over the shit from last week and potentially this weekend.
As ever it's always funny to have a quick gander at a Spuds forum after we hand them an L.
It's a battle between lying cunts who say they don't care because it's only some tin pot cup, and the deluded cunts having meltdowns because they think they deserve a win just for showing up.
Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations.
