The Gentry R.I.P - Lost in Space (Brian Jolly)
OP
GENTRY TIFO UPDATE – PLEASE READ
Following discussions with the club, the tribute Gentry Tifo will now be displayed next season to ensure it receives the platform and impact it deserves.
We have decided to keep the opportunity open for the remainder of this season for supporters to:
• Add the name of a loved one to the design
• Make a donation towards the display
As many of you know, we recently lost one of our own in Brian Jolly (LIS) – a dedicated moderator and Prediction League organiser. Brian was a strong supporter of this project. While we explore permanent ways to remember him on the forum, we feel it is fitting to encourage donations towards the Gentry Tifo in his memory.
For this period, donations will be split between the Tifo fund and a charity chosen by Brian’s family. This will also honour other forum members we have recently lost, including The Warehouse (Dave B).
You can donate as little or as much as you wish:
Donate here: https://www.gofundme.com/gentrytifo
If you would like to add a name to the tribute and make a donation:
Stripe Checkout
Together, we will create a tribute worthy of the Gentry.

What a sad loss, all my thoughts go out to Brian’s family and loved ones.
Although most of us on here have never met each other it does feel like a big extended family - as far as I’m concerned, any North End fan is a friend of mine.
Rest in peace, Brian.

Oh wow, just seen this. Absolutely awful news. Clashed with him a few times but always enjoyed debates with him even if we didn't agree on much! Did an incredible job running the prediction league, I imagine that must be very time consuming.
RIP Brian.

Sad news indeed, condolences to family and friends. RIP.
We fairly often disagreed but i never felt he took it personally or held a grudge.
Had a few dealings with him doing the Prediction League.
Very sad news.. RIP.. condolences to his family.
Safe to say we've lost one of the pne-online stalwarts.

I never met him as "Lost in Space" but once had dealings with a Brian ( I think) Jolly at Frank Whittles who I suspect is the same guy. And very nice he was too .
Condolences to his family

Very sad news. Rest easy fella 🙏
RIP Brian. Only knew him through the prediction league and occasional posts. Condolences to his family and friends.🙏🏻
Truly awful news and difficult to take in. Brian always came across as an absolute gentleman and his sheer passion for all things North End was blatantly obvious. I enjoyed reading his posts and really appreciated the wonderful job he did with the prediction league. He will be sadly missed.
RIP LiS. Condolences to his family and friends.

When I messaged Brian around Christmas time I asked him when his next visit to Deepdale
would be and he said that he was planning to come to the Stoke game and I said that we would
meet up for a pint or two……
Sadly that won’t happen ….
