Tom Ritchie ("City 'til I Cry" fanzine) RIP - Funeral today 14th October

[kismet]

Thank you for posting this pic. I'm terrible with names but pretty good with faces so I did wonder if I'd known him once the OP mentioned the Rochdale CSA meetings, there weren't many of us who attended those at the time but definitely recognise him now I've seen him. Very sad. RIP.

Thanks . Yes he was a regular at Rochdale branch. A top blue terribly missed.

I knew Tom's name from the fanzine but did not know him. Very sorry to hear this sad news

Seen this doing the rounds today. A lovely anecdote from Tom about the Dickov goal at Wembley.

Was that from the book about the 98/99 season. Blue moon I think it was called.
Beautiful anecdote.
