Malcolm Allison RIP - Confirmed

[lancs blue]

RIP Big Fella, so many happy memories from when he and Joe were in charge. As said already he was years ahead of his time as a coach. Always remember him striding fearlessly up to the Stretford End before a derby and giving them stick, he'd get arrested for that now!

 

[Damocles]

Massive loss :-(

Fuck off rag, you're banned

 

[Impeccable]

I bumped into him in a quiet Altrincham bar 10 years ago. He was more than happy to talk to a few random strangers about City. He said we would be a force once again in time.

We had beaten Gillingham on penalties a few months earlier. Even then, he was still positive and spoke good things about City.

RIP great man.

Legend of the game.

 

[Chris in London]

Even now, if I ever see anybody in a Fedora, I immediately assume it's a larger than life character with a big fat cigar in the inside pocket.

He will be sadly missed, but I think we are all grateful for everything he gave us.

And thanks, Big Mal, for all those times you told the Stretford End how many we were going to put past them.

 

[scorer]

Truth be told it was he and Mercer that are the reasons I am so privilidged to support this magnificent team. I would no doubt these days be tagged a glory hunter.

I cant believe it but there are tears streaming as I write this and what is more I just cant stop.
