Ricky Hatton RIP

[Didsbury Dave]

Both Huddersfield and Burnley fans joined in with our “One Ricky Hatton” chants this week. I can’t think of that happening ever before.

 

[Don Karleone]

Nice tribute.

I thought the 1894 did a great job with the display. Really classy and summed up who Hatton was - the people’s champion.

I could also see a banner in east stand level 3 - can we make that permanent?

I hope his chant continues all season and beyond

The peoples champion, class. Top flag that and I also noticed a banner which I hope is a permanent fixture.
One Ricky Hatton

The people’s champion banner would look great as a two stick smaller flag as well. Maybe the 1894 group could do something with that, as it would be a shame to only see it once

Goosebumps reading this thread
The pictures of his family are both beautiful and very sad.

We should make a banner out of the screen display but include the gloves.

Thought the tributes at the game today were class. Well done to everyone involved, 1894 Group and Don Grant the artist for the fantastic banner design.

I wonder if the club might consider a charity fundraiser and celebration of Ricky at some point. Maybe the final home game of the season, something like a retro shirt day with donations going to charitable causes Ricky supported etc?

Sell prints of the design ? Im sure many would purchase them ?

Hasn't Campbell already retired from boxing earlier this year and is now fitting solar panels?
