RIP Shaky

RIP Shaky

Can't believe this sad news about Shaky - I remember run-ins with Shaky and fff on numerous issues. Shaky stuck up for me a few times and had a great love of the natural world. He suffered greatly from guilt for having shot a blue tit with an air rifle in his youth. His guilt betrayed a soft heart and caring nature. Hardly knew him really but will miss him greatly nevertheless. Just wonder how long it would 'of' been before he got stuck in to Stuckman? Bye Bye Shaky - a good egg.

Another ex forum character returns. Stick around... How's your Wendy by the way?
 
Can I suggest we set up a 'just giving' site up rather than PayPal as the latter can zap some of the donations people make.

Edit. I'm willing to set it up if it gets the nod.

His 'abuse' of yoga was certainly legendary!

Just found a joke shaky posted about him 3 years ago...

Why can't you just hold your hand up and admit you fucked up again you senile, arrogant old cunt?

Nugent wasn't an England player in your mind? Well here's a picture proving your mind isn't very sound, you're either stupid, senile, or both.

He's scored for England too you fucking moron.

Everyone hates Danny? I don't think so, but every fucker hates you, you twisted old goat.

It's nasty, abusive, twisted.......but for some reason it was always as funny as fuck!!
 
With regards the "Well Done Derek" comments that Shaky started with at that trip to Southampton. I have just found his letter that was sent into the LEP. It kind of explains how this phrase came about and why it became Shakys comeback to any of the "Ream Team"!

6 million for Nugent is a good offer and as a Supporter of 60 years standing it's encouraging that North End have turned Sheffield United's bid down.

If we fail to make the Premiership, then it would be fair not to stand in Nugent's way if an acceptable offer comes along.

Well done Derek Shaw.

Let's hope our dream comes true at last and it's Premiership next season and with Nugent too.

Just informed 'Sentinel', he's as shell-shocked as us all. He may pop on in his 'guise at some point to pay tribute.
 
I suppose I'll add my bit. I found out the news when I logged on on Monday morning. Obviously it came as a massive, massive shock. I'm not ashamed to say that even though I only met him once, and argued on here with him fairly often, he made such a big impression on me on here that I welled up several times during the day thinking about him. I've felt less emotional about relatives passing.

Belligerent, rude, dogmatic, judgmental, aggressive and obnoxious. And definitely my favourite poster on here.

The foremost catalyst for debate, argument and discussion since John Beck.

He'll be terribly, terribly missed - and that's from someone who really only knew him on here. No idea how the rest of you are coping.

I say this as an atheist, but fuck it - God Bless you Shaky. RIP

Any Nobber who can get a thread on our board with 40 odd postings(so far)about him, without actually posting himself, can`t have been too bad!😉

Good read that Sats.

I liked this post from macattack1 particularly the bit in bold.


Dave was a top bloke. I run trail hounds in Cumbria and he was a well respected and admired man.
We had rivalry about our teams but it was always friendly banter. He used to say it was animal abuse as my dogs wear tangerine coats after races but it was always taken in the right way with him having a rye smile on his face.
He is the one and only knobber I will truly miss.
RIP Dave


I can imagine Shaky giving him some stick about the tangerine coats. 😀

RIP Shaky
 
A couple of things we should thank Shaky for as an PNEFC online community:

I managed to use the 'wayback machine' to retrace the unofficial forum as far back as 2000.

1. ornithology - back in 2000 the forum (pnefc.co.uk) was a single topic forum. Shaky and a few others decision to talk constantly about ornithology led to multi-topic forums when the masses started to complain!

2. Shaky was the first to suggest a moor park pub meet back in 2000. In someways it broke the rules by unmasking the forum users anonymity. But on a positive it broke barriers and created friendships.

Thanks Shaky.

At it's worst, this forum can be a total pain in the arse that can drive you mad. At it's best, it's a community and a family. This sad news has in fact brought out the very, very best.

Well said.. very good summary. In similar fashion I logged on Monday morning.. and thought what's Shaky been up to get a thread title like "RIP". Never for one moment did I think...

The atheist v god botherer debates will never be the same.. now that Shaky with his evolution defying Coelcanth tucked under his arm have left the building. I loved the way he would argue that his ancestors did not crawl out of the soup !

I think when we started with those debates I always had in the back of my mind the oft heard maxim.. "never discuss religion and politics". But I quickly found that with a character like Shakey on your side.. it could be both illuminating and really great fun.

As a tribute to the man.. I suggest we who only knew him by his online persona should have an "abuse each other like Shaky week".



..you atheist f***tard twonk !

Your not wrong there Randall.

I think this thread is both a credit to our forum members and PNE Fans as a whole. Once time passes and Daves family get to read the pages and pages of tributes hopefully it can bring them some comfort.

Sats, you should turn up on Saturday representing your lot as in back in the day.

I`m toying with the idea JD as I don`t go on that many games these days, and there`s a snowball in hell`s chance I`ll be in east anglia this weekend.
It seems right somehow that I should go(for old times sake),but then I`m an old man now and don`t want my "tangerine face pasting round the pub walls if you show" as the infamous FFF threatened me with all those years back.😉
The Vespa has been replaced with an old pushbike these days, so I could be in for a long and wobbly ride home.🙄
