Barry Knowles RIP

For anyone who lives around the Cheadle Hulme area and has been a regular in the Junction sad news that Barry passed away in his sleep this week after a long illness.

Despite having The Big C he continued to follow City but was not well enough to attend Wolves this week with his last game being the Burton 9-0 game, a fitting finale for the biggest Blue I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

I met Barry(or Bazzor as we liked to call him) through my cousin and quickly found we had something in common In life......our love of City and beer.

A group of us would follow City everywhere and you always knew it was going to be fun with Barry around.

One Saturday pre season I wanted to go to watch City at Kilmarnock but had not made any arrangements. It was 10am. I had a pass from the wife.
However, I didnt want to go on my own. " Who do I know that is daft enough that can I ring this late on to go to Kilmarnock?" I asked the wife. "Barry" she replied and sure enough 30 minutes later we were on our way.

For anyone who knew him I will put funeral details on here as well as getting over to the Junction to put a notice up there.His ashes are to be spread at the Memorial Garden at City alongside wilfwild1937 his close friend who passed away last year.
Do you have a photo pal name rings a bell. RIP blue
