Bumped into him at the abseiling event at the weekend, no idea if he was volunteering at the event or just passing through as I know he has recently retired. I'm too young to have seen him play but know fully well what an impact he has had on our wider community.
Spoke like we were old friends and even my Mrs who isn't a footballing person said as we left 'what a lovely man, where do you know him from?'. That's the sort of bloke Alex is, time for anybody and a real people person. He is a credit to our club.
