I might not agree with a lot of your posts on Albion matters US but I cant help but applaud the work yourself and others do in raising money for REMF and long may it continue. :clap:

I never knew Robert Eaton myself but I will never forget watching those terrible events unfold on tv for the rest of my life. R.I.P fellow Albion fan and everybody else who perished in the twin towers on 9/11.

totally agree
RIP Robert

Totally agree with that.

RIP Ricky Marlowes Hairpiece. :(

I remember he was posting on a thread on the Sunday as Ricky Marlowe's Hairpiece - only 2 days before the event. It still feels very strange and almost unreal 6 years on.

Looking back now, it was an absolute honour to play in the 1st REMF game - a feeling that will no doubt grow as the years go by.

It is so sad that Robert along with thousands of others suffered the most horrifying death I can think of. Sadly it seems some people in the world think this is acceptable.

However, good often follows evil and the REMF is a wonderful tribute to Robert. I do hope it gives some comfort to his family.

May light perpetual shine upon you.

RIP

Thanks to Richard Lindfield and Southern Counties Radio for allowing me to speak about the REMF again. I think Robert would be proud of what has been achieved in his name.

Well said.
 




Rob in NY in the chat-room, a regular, and always good to banter with.
He IS (not 'was', he will always be 'is') one of us, one of the lads, Albion fan.

Cheers Rob in NY, I hope this text lights up for you somewhere (as it does in the chat when any member name is typed - it goes a different colour for the member whose name is typed).

We carry you with us.

You were really good on there Gareth, better than him anyway.

I have been to Ground Zero and found your name on the memorial there and shed a few tears for a fellow Albion Fan. RIP Robert, gone but not forgotten.
