first met Tony in Dublin roundabout 91 or 92, City played Celtic at Tolka park,was a serious rumble on a bridge not far from ground,we were in serious shit but somehow my mates & his managed to stick together and get ourselves to the ground in 1 piece(in the Celtic end behind the goal where a Union flag was being burned)we became mates after that & used to meet up at aways,lost a bit of touch over the years as you do,i knew he had MS but it was only a few months back i learned he was in a care home,sad news..
RIP Tony
