Although I am far from popular on this board, Maximus was one of the few on here that I was able to exchange posts with on a sensible level. There was a clear mutual respect between us as supporters of our respective teams. and I was fortunate to be able to exchange posts with him as recently as last week.
However, in terms of supporting my team, I wasn't in Maximus's league. Sunderland away on a Tuesday night (when we're doing well) is about my limit. I couldn't ever imagine me doing a Sunderland to Cardiff type trip for a midday kick off that is live on Sky in a position similar to Sunderland's.
I am in total shock at this news, even more so given that he was posting on here as usual only a few days ago. I can only echo the comments made by others on this thread and my thoughts go out to the friends and family of such a top bloke.
For me, this forum will never quite be the same and I'm sure that will go for many who post on here as well.
Sunderland have lost a top, top supporter here and if ever we needed reminding that some things are more important than football then this terrible news is it.
There's a couple Villa lads in ttonic now, they're getting drinks bought for them. I know I'm biased but I love this city, no animosity at all, I've gone and shook hands with them too. Lads following their club on a Tuesday, this is what it's all about
