Shaky

Shaky

Met him once on a day session round Ulverston around a year or so before he passed, he was such a nice fella in person and always hilarious on here. I remember laughing out loud at some of his posts.

His passion for PNE and hound trails was very evident, very much missed.
 
I didn't know Shaky like many of you did. Whilst he kept us Mods busy, he was without doubt the biggest character on the forum and it wasn't the same after his passing. Will never forget such classics at the ETC, triple salco, WDD and rants at the horrible bastard who went to SE Asia.
 
Didn’t know Shaky, wasn’t aware of the forum back then. (Sh*t fan!)
Reading the comments really touching, a character I’m sad not to have known.

A bit further down. There's a big lad (red shirt), who I went with, I'm to the right(grey shirt and arms folded). Partially hidden behind me, is the big lad's brother, who sadly died at a young age (30).

Rants about his caterwauling and begging not busking.
He used to have me laughing my head off.

He hated Lonergan with a passion. I felt sorry for Andy.
Probably the most argumentative poster we have had.

I dunno.

Leadboots kopped it more.

Shakes conceded that Teffers was at least a great reflex keeper.

I like to think he would have been a no nonsense voice of sanity over the last two years.

A unique character, of that there is no doubt.

On the point of sanity, he was probably the first person I saw who spelt out that the championship was the worst place possible for a club like ours financially and one way or another we had to leave it to survive, up or down. Whilst this was probably pre the Hemmings safety net era its as true now as it was then and Shaky was amongst the first to properly cotton on and spell it out in stark terms. I've thought about that a lot over the last few years.
 
He was a self described "cunt" on here which no one argue with.

Best wishes to his family as he sounded a good bloke off the keyboard.
 
He designed this mug, didn't he? 🙂

Had loads of arguments with Shaky back in the days when I posted loads more, I moved the Isle of Man in 2006 shortly after we had another ‘disagreement’ then just before his passing, he sent me a picture of the Isle of Man he had taken and said, gave you a wave today Littlelamb!! It was like he was making his peace!

Many an argument but many a laff too! Shaky, you were a one off!! ❤️
