RIP Tommy Porter



Really sad news.

When I was a kid my dad was out of work a lot, and he would regularly go to the Charlie Hurley Centre on weekdays to watch the lads train. In those days, it was much more open and accessible for supporters etc.

I had plenty of opportunities to go with him and I remember how kind Tommy was, when he was there. He always wanted to talk football, and would bring out hot drinks etc for the supporters watching the training sessions. My abiding memory of him is of a genuinely lovely fella. RIP Tommy.
