Sad passing of a loyal blue Eccles Blue

[AliBobbyJ]

Luved reading Eccles Blue posts which were devoid of offensive language and always respectful of others opinions no matter how misguided they might have seemed ;) .... if Johnny Stones only got 1 vote from the motm poll then you never had to wonder who cast it ... from a person I never met, she embodied the rare values of a previous generation that feel all too scarce in the modern world ... RIP Blue

Old school indeed, I loved how she'd tell offenders on BM to "go and stand in the naughty corner."
(As a teacher herself she surely sent a fair few miscreants there in her time, but I reckon she soon had them back at their desk under a watchful yet forgiving eye.)

RIP Sheila, one of life's nice people, got to know her very well during my time with Eccles branch, not a bad bone in her body, absolutely adored travelling all over Europe watching city, who always made sure she had front row seats, whenever possible.

You bear a staggering resemblance to Roberto Mancini.

Sheila was brilliant she never had a bad word for anyone. She always got her seat on the bus first, it was a superstition everyone knew if Sheila sat in her seat first it was more or less a guaranteed 3 points or a win.

[I'm Blue]

Awful news.
I didn’t know Eccles personally but always enjoyed her posts on here.
They were always respectful, which for this place is quite a rarity ; )
RIP Blue.

Match day thread will not be the same without her positivity,RIP Sheila you will be missed.

A heartwarming thought that as a teacher, her values and memories of her will live on through hundreds, if not thousands, of lives around the world.

Is this a double reverse Clarkie?
