gnasher16 31,602 Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Ive been away a while and just logged on to find a pm from someone informing me of Attack Fell Terriers death..........im totally gobsmacked i dont believe it !!..............Ive looked through the last 10 or 12 pages in the general section and cant find anything about it would somebody kindly direct me to it please. Must admit ive a bit of a sickly feeling in the pit of my stomach i only knew the man on here but i liked him he seemed a nice lad with a lot of honesty and sincerity to him he loved his boxing and would often message me asking about different fighters from the past.....he had a good knowledge on the sport and knew all the fighters from around the world i would often find myself asking him about some of the foreign fighters id not heard of......he collected fight videos/dvds and he knew ive spent ages looking for a couple of my fathers fights from years ago and did his very best to find them for me i told him id pay him any amount he wanted as it was important to me but he wouldnt accept a penny and was just glad to of helped. Ive attended a funeral today of a good old boxing trainer from these parts a lovely old boy Lennie Lee......i only knew AFT off the internet but this is equally gutting in its own kind of way.................is there any kind of collection or anything ? id be keen to donate if there is. My heart go,s out to his loved ones....with abiding respect.RIP 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
