In among our celebrations of our cup win, as Red One has pointed out, Bob's passing is a sad day for Mid Cheshire football. His record and service to football in Cheshire and Mid-Cheshire was exemplary and on top of all that he was a real gent too. Condolences to his family, especially to Rachel his daughter whom I was at Sixth Form with. RIP Bob. Enjoy your football with the Gods...
