Is that the same Doreen who is Carl Wilkinson's fan and sponsor ?

Parsy29 127 Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) It was a nice send off for a good bloke. George certainly wasnt perfect and at times could be a bit of a pain, however he was genuine and told you his thoughts. He was a one off and someone I certainly enjoyed having in my life from the start. He will be a huge miss to many people at Brough and it was great to see so many give him a decent send off. RIP George Regards Gavin Edited January 23, 2019 by Parsy29 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She used to stand with us when we stood in front of the Office, and would go anywhere for Chris, even staying overnight at his house if he had a few meetings together down south. I don't think even I could pick myself out, presumably it was in brown sepia. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So still one match short I would think one of the reserve dates would be arranged as a challenge at a later date once the Shield matches are out of the way in case a date is needed for a rain-off.
