    Best wishes, as said above, similar to my grandad. Was given 3 months with lung cancer. Went on another 10 years and was taken with something completely different.

    When something tragic happens in life people always say that it puts football into perspective or makes you realise how unimportant football is.

    I think Springvale Red's post shows quite the opposite. Well done to BFC and good luck to Springvale Red's Father.

    I don't know you or your old man, but my heart goes out to you. I'm very sorry to hear that news.

    Well done to the club and I truly hope your dad and you had a brilliant day at the ground.

    Best wishes to you and yours from a fellow Red.

    They were good to me and my family as well when my dad died in 2004. We spread his ashes on the grass behind the goal in front of the Ponty.
