RIP Shaky

RIP Shaky

I like the themed idea. Unlike most of you I have to work the morning, so the north end shirt will have to be donned later. But we have to consider it as a celebration of Shaky's life and the theme sounds great.

Been to celebrate a forum wedding in a North End shirt, so why not a funeral!!

I've got a yellow BAXI away shirt complete with player signatures you can wear if you're struggling Dan - 42"-44" according to the label - long sleeved home Baxi for me - Last worn at Cardiff 2001........lets see if I can squeeze into that 11 years on!

I'm not wearing a PNE shirt...sorry...I'll take my badge and scarf but I don't even wear a footie shirt for the match so don't think I would feel very comfortable wearing one for a funeral....Hope nobody is offended but I've only got ones from the play-offs and just wouldn't feel comfortable...I hope nobody minds.

P.S. Anybody know if PNE have done an official away scarf at all this season...that would be black wouldn't it?

I can't say I have noticed a black scarf Sharon. I have a black away shirt which I may wear as requested.
 
Believe me, nobody's gonna feel more uncomfortable than me wearing a PNE shirt to the funeral... it'll be a bloody struggle to breath after stretching an old Baxi shirt over my middle aged frame. But that's missing the point.

We have been asked by Jacqui to honour her husband at his funeral by wearing PNE kit and forming a guard of honour. If I have to borrow a shirt that fits from the Deepdale Duck - I'll be wearing one.



Besides, it could be worse, you could be part of the Hound Trail Crew. Stood there in church in your muddy wellies and cagoule with a pair of binoculars around your neck.

It's a while since I wore it...

Just wear your gimp suit mate, you'll be fine.
 
Having been requested to wear a PNE shirt yesterday and the fact that all mine have shrunk over the years 😉 I have kindly been loaned this years black shirt which I think is apt. However it does remind me why I no longer buy football shirts.

It is fair to say that the design of these shirts are not really for the fully figured football fan are they 😉

I never met the fella IRL, couldn't avoid him on here though! Sad news indeed. I'm sure all those attending the service will do him proud.

RIP buddy.
 
Myself and Shaky rarely saw eye to eye, both being argumentative twats, but I can see that so many love him on here he must have been a decent bloke in real life. I'm off up his neck of the woods in a couple of months - if someone would oblige i'd love them to tell me where he's laid to rest so I can pay my respects.

Truth be told, I always suspected he wasn't the same online as offline - I would have liked to go for a drink with him last time I was in the Lakes.

Thanks.
