Connie Blackburn

Very saddened to learn from Chris Blackburn this morning that sadly Connie passed away peacefully yesterday evening aged 92.

A club stalwart of very many years and last surviving of the ladies who ran the tea bar and board room at the far end of the main stand.

RIP Connie.

Agree the Martin Gittings I remember was a unit. Strong as an Ox and looked and played like it.

I wish those moving had stopped to show some respect all be it they probably never saw him play but still.

I agree. Certain thing's should not be disclosed for other peoples scrutiny.

Re: Coalville and fans

A good read as I always find with Neil's work. One game I feel has been missed out is Leamington away in the Play-off final. A rock being lobbed at one of our coaches not to mention provocative behavior on the pitch at the end of the game from what can only be called FL/PL fans. Last Saturday me and...

Re: Prediction - COALVILLE

Having spoke to one of the Stewards in the first half they are from a firm that do football league games so probably more what there used to. Having said that I wouldn't brand all their fans that way having spoken to a couple in the bar (Smallest clubhouse ive been in!) those up there at least had s...

Re: For those going to Needham Market

Darren, I completely agree with you that politics should be left off the Forum. Nothing pleases me more than discussing football matches that give us all a great deal of pleasure, away from the mad world we currently find ourselves in. But: I didn’t start this thread and the implication behind it i...
