Is with great sadness.....

[binney's tache]

To announce the passing of my stepfather, Morris Elmes aged 78. A great husband,dad, fantastic grandad and above all good man. Mo was an Albion fan from the age of 7, following them through thick and thin. When i was 11 years old (34 years ago), mum told me she had booked two tickets for me and her to go to newcastle away (5th May 1979). It was there that we first met Mo. Mum and Mo were to be married two years later. Is it just coincidence or was it fate the mum n Mo started their long and happy time together with this fixture and has now sadly ended with it. R.I.P. Mo,x.

P.S. Mo, i'm gonna put a tenner on for you mate for 3-1, same as 34 years ago. Luv ya.

R.I.P. Sounds like a very good man. After all those years I hope he enjoyed a few games at The Amex..?

It's obviously a horrible way to start 2013 but at least you got to spend one final Christmas with him.

A "Good Man" is a proper tribute. And what a mother - taking her 11 year old to one of the biggest Albion matches.

R.I.P.

Was sorry to hear this news yesterday. Mo was a true gent and occasionally grabbed a lift to games with Tubby, Tufty & myself. Albion through and through. RIP Mo.

Great story mate

He was indeed a good bloke, knew Brighton (football club, town, city) through and through. Got some good memories of going to games with Maurizio home and away over the years and I personally never heard him say a bad word about anyway (which is more than I can say about myself).

You have your tenner on Lee and good luck.

I will have a whiskey mac after the game on saturday, just like the man did in the winter after a game.

 

[albion534]

Ill wack a tenner on us just for him!

Edit: £10@17/10 returns £27
